Jude
Jude may only be a little one chapter book, but it is a
heavyweight in content. Although Jude was a ‘half-brother’
of Jesus, he doesn’t dare to presume such a title, but
rather introduces himself as the ‘servant of Jesus and
brother of James’ (v1). Whilst Jude expresses his desire to
‘write of our common salvation’ (v3), he is compelled to
exhort us to ‘contend for the faith’ (v3) on account of
ungodly men that had crept into the church. He compares
these ‘tares’ to the rebellious angels (in Gen 6) and the
wicked men of Sodom and Gomorrah (Gen 19).
We know from Matthew 13 that we are not to uproot
these tares, lest we damage the wheat in the process – that
is God’s business – but Jude has no hesitation in exposing
them and their methods. It is vital that we are aware of
their schemes, so as not to be deceived, but we must not
become obsessed with them: “But ye, beloved, building up
yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy
Ghost, Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the
mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life”
(20-21).
