We make a beginning into Jude 3 and 4. Jude’s intensity rises almost immediately as he attacks the false teachers by touching both the intellect and emotion of his readers, even invoking disgust. Jude isn’t on the defense; he’s bringing it!

Today we finish Jude 1 and 2. We dive deep into the first two of Jude’s triad. We are called loved and kept. It’s the keeping that is at the heart of Jude’s message. Knowing how contentious he is about to get, he greets the recipients of his letter with mercy, peace and love. Jude wants these three gifts of God to be multiplied to these people. Putting into context why he doesn’t greet his readers...

Today we continue our look at verses 1 and 2. Especially at the phrase: ‘Servant of Jesus Christ’. How does Jude use that phrase? What is the difference between an Apostle and a Servant of Jesus Christ? Jude sets himself up as someone who has an authoritative claim on our lives by calling himself a servant of Jesus Christ.

Today we make a start into Jude 1 and 2, but just a start. We will get hung up on the very first word. Who is Jude or is it Judas? By process of elimination and help of other Scripture, we will make a stunning conclusion. Jude is someone who was once an unbeliever but came to be a servant of Jesus Christ, his own half-brother, in seeing him rise from the dead.
