opposition-free—the battles and challenges are real and do exist. Fortunately, Jude (or Judah as pronounced) provides important historical factors and illustrations to consider. Judah provides a warning of the false teachers' influence

upon the faith of believers. The threat of false teachers, particularly their way of life, and their loss of morality, as such, Jude presents a strong encouragement to contend for the true Christian faith. The reality is that we are all faced with

compromises and dilemmas from the world in which we live. So, we must contend through faith and dedication to loving God! I hope this message will encourage and strengthen you as you pray through any challenges.
