Crich Baptist Church

What Jude wrote in the penultimate book of the Bible, applies, not just to the church of his day, but to us as well. In verse 3 of his epistle he urged people to contend earnestly for the faith. A lack of godliness, no sense of morality, dealing with false teachers, and the error that they sought to bring in to the church was what appeared to have troubled Jude. The call then, as now, was not to contend in our own strength, but with the strength that God has given to us, and to do so with every fibre of our being, that ultimately, we will be before Him spotless, faultless and clean. We will actually stand before Him with exceeding joy. This is because of what God has done for us in Christ. Therefore, press on, and persevere.
