Jude: Contention NOT Tolerance

By Wayne Leigh

Book Overview

Jude is one of the shortest books in the Bible. Perhaps that is one reason it is also relatively unknown in our day. Or perhaps the reason is that Jude calls the church to contend for the faith once for all delivered to the saints. In contemporary American culture almost any religious debating or contending is considered hate speech. The churches feel the pressure of society against arguing over the truth, since the majority no longer believes there is such a thing as absolute truth. Therefore Jude is a refreshing voice calling all believers not to be tolerant of every movement that tries to intrude itself into the church. There is truth. God's word is truth. Consequently, believers are called to take a stand for the truth, and even to fight for the truth. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the complete truth of everlasting salvation to which nothing new needs to be added. The hope for this brief Bible study of Jude is that it will help God's people contend for the faith.
