Contending for the Faith

As we turn to the study of our text we find ourselves being both instructed and challenged by the fact that, constrained by circumstance, Jude alters the original letter which he intended to write, and yet because the 21st century church of Christ is no less susceptible to infiltration by false teachers and false teaching, by the grace of God and by the person and power of His Holy Spirit, you and I and all Christians everywhere must hear and heed Jude's earnest exhortation to "Contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints."
