The faith is always under attack, but the most dangerous attacks are not full frontal assaults. They are subtle and sneaky. They don’t come from someone wearing a different color uniform, but someone who looks and sounds like a teammate. Jude’s short letter revolves around one main command—contend for the faith. After giving the command, Jude further explains what the faith is, how the attacks come, and how Christians can contend against them. The book can easily be broken down into four sermons focusing on “The Faith of the Saints.”
Delivered by God (1—4)
Denied throughout History (5—11)
Distorted by Opponents (12—19)
Dependent on Mercy (20—25)
