Jude 1: 1-3

(Jude 1: 1-3) 『 Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ , and brother of James , to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ , and called:   Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.   Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. 』   Judas, who wrote Jude, is the fourth brother of Jesus' brother, James, Joseph, and Simon, who were born to Joseph and Mary. There are several Judas of the same name in the Bible, including one of Jesus' twelve disciples, Judeus Tadao, Judas the Garroth, Judas the son of James, and Judas the younger brother of Jesus who wrote Jude. Since Jesus' younger brothers were born and raised in a family since childhood, they did not admit that Jesus was the Christ. Even in John 7:5, we can see that even when Jesus went up to Jerusalem to...

Jude 1:4-5

(Jude 1:4-5) 『 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ .   I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt , afterward destroyed them that believed not. 』   The Bible prophetically proclaims the miserable end of false teachers, explaining the warnings of the Gnostic heresy, or false teachers, as three judgments from the Old Testament God. The first is the judgment on those who do not believe in God among the exodus. 『 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt , afterward destroyed them that believed not. 』 The false teacher who was deceived by Gnosticism was those who denied God's promises, "Exodus and in front of t...

Jude 1: 6

  (Jude 1: 6) 『 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. 』   Judgment against those who insist on Gnosticism is as if the angels who left their homes were locked in darkness with eternal bonds until the judgment of the great day. Gnostics are those who stand for their righteousness. Likewise, angels who did not maintain their position were deceived by Satan and thought they could become like God without God. This is his righteousness. Their righteousness not only thinks that they can become gods themselves, but also thinks that they are idols and gods. God would judge gnostics like evil angels.   Human beings are souls who are living creatures where spirit and soil meet. In Ecclesiastes 12:7 『 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. 』 In Genesis 2:7 『 And the LORD God fo...

Jude 1: 7

(Jude 1: 7) 『 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. 』   Judgment against Gnostics is against Sodom and Gomorrah. Sodom and Gomorrah are well known for their homosexuality. Homosexuality destroys God's order of creation, and it is an evil sin against humans. So, God judged with a sulfur fire. Today, humanity may be living at the end of history. One of the evidences is homosexuality. It is called sodomite. In God's eyes, homosexuality is different from all sins. In 1 Corinthians 6:9 『 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind 』 Fornicators are those who enjoy porn, and seekers are feminized men (Greek: Moikos μοιχ ός : jeong-ja, apostle), transge...
