Jude,a servant of Jesus Christ and brother of James. To those who are called,beloved in the Father and kept for Jesus Christ. May mercy, peace and love be multiplied to you. Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I found it necessary to write appealing to you to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints. For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly people who pervert the grace of Our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. Now I want too remind you, although you once fully knew it, that Jesus who saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe. And the angels who did not stay within their own position of authority but left their proper dwelling, he has kept in eternal chains under gloomy darkness until the judgement of the great day- just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, which likewise indulged in sexual immorality and pursued unnatural desire serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire. Yet in like manner these people also relying on their dreams, defile the flesh, reject authority and blaspheme the glorious ones. But when the archangel Micheal contending with the devil, was disputing about the body of Moses, he did not pronounce a blasphemous judgement but said. The Lord rebuke you. But these people blaspheme all that they do not understand, and they are destroyed by all that they, like unreasoning animals ,understand instinctively. Woe to them!For they walked in the way of Cain and abandoned themselves for the sake of gain to Balaams error and perished in Korahs rebellion. These are hidden reefs at your love feasts as they feast with you without fear, shepherds feeding themselves, waterless clouds swept along by winds, fruitless trees in late autumn, twice dead uprooted, wild waves of the sea, casting up the foam of their own shame, wandering stars for whom the gloom of utter darkness has been reserved forever. It was also about these that Enoch the seventh from Adam prophesied saying Behold the Lord comes with ten thousands of his holy ones to execute judgement on all and to convict the ungodly of all their deeds of ungodliness that they have committed in such an ungodly way.and of all the harsh things that ungodly sinners have spoken against him. These are grumblers, malcontents, following their own sinful desires they are loud mouthed boasters showing favortism to gain advantage. But you must remember beloved the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ. They said to you in the last time there will be scoffers following their own ungodly passions. It is these who cause divisions, wordly people devoid of the Spirit. But you beloved building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit keep yourselves in the love of God waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. And have mercy on those who doubt, save others by snatching them out of the fire, to others show mercy with fear hating even the garments stained by the flesh. Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy to the only God our Saviour through Jesus Christ our Lord be glory majesty dominion and authority before all time now and forever. amen
