Jude 17-25 Inductive Bible Study
Jude 17-25
Keep Yourselves in the Love of God
Summary- In contrast to the ungodly, we should remember the things that the apostles told us before about Jesus, that there would be mockers, following their own ungodly lusts. These kinds of people would come between brothers and bring a worldly and unholy spirit with them.
We, however, should build ourselves up in a holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keeping ourselves in the love f God, waiting eagerly for Christ’s mercy that brings eternal life. At the same time, we should have mercy on those Christians who are struggling with doubt, and diligently work to save others from eternal destruction, without becoming entangled in their sin with them.
Jude closes with a benediction, saying that God is able to keep us from stumbling, to make us stand blamelessly and joyfully in his glorious presence. He alone is God, and He deserves glory, majesty, dominion and authority that surpasses all time and all people.
Central Teaching-We should pay heed to the warnings given us so faithfully, and keep ourselves in the love of God.

What does this passage teach me about God?
He warns us well in advance of dangers to come.
He has it all planned out, and He wins in the end.
He loves me.
He has mercy on me to eternal life.
He hates even the suggestion of sin.
He is able to keep me from stumbling.
He makes me stand in the presence of His glory blameless and with great joy.
He is our only God and Savior.
He deserves glory, majesty, dominion and authority, forever and ever.
How does this apply to my life?
I should be cautious as I listen to other’s teaching and theories. I should remember what Jesus and the apostles (and others) said in the Bible, and weigh what I’m hearing against that.
Do things in my life that build up my faith. Memorize more Scripture. Pray believing. Walk in the love of God. Look forward eagerly to His return and eternal life with Him.
Other’s unbelief shouldn’t make me proud of myself, or cause me to judge them or feel impatient with them. Rather, I should show them mercy as I humbly share the gospel with them. At the same time, I should be careful not to mix with them so freely that I am pulled down by their sin and unbelief.

Heb 6:4-8
4 For in the case of those who have once been enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6 and then have fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God and put Him to open shame. 7 For ground that drinks the rain which often falls on it and brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose sake it is also tilled, receives a blessing from God; 8 but if it yields thorns and thistles, it is worthless and close to being cursed, and it ends up being burned.
James 5:19-20

2 Cor 7:10-12
10 For the sorrow that is according to the will of God produces a repentance without regret, leading to salvation, but the sorrow of the world produces death. 11 For behold what earnestness this very thing, this godly sorrow, has produced in you: what vindication of yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what longing, what zeal, what avenging of wrong! In everything you demonstrated yourselves to be innocent in the matter. 12 So although I wrote to you, it was not for the sake of the offender nor for the sake of the one offended, but that your earnestness on our behalf might be made known to you in the sight of God.

6 For all of us have become like one who is unclean,
And all our righteous deeds are like a filthy garment;
And all of us wither like a leaf,
1 Cor 5:9-11
9 I wrote you in my letter not to associate with immoral people; 10 I did not at all mean with the immoral people of this world, or with the covetous and swindlers, or with idolaters, for then you would have to go out of the world. 11 But actually, I wrote to you not to associate with any so-called brother if he is an immoral person, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler — not even to eat with such a one.
