When We Don't Contend

Join us on a thought-provoking journey through the Book of Jude, where we tackle the complexities of early Christian life, the challenge of discerning truth from false doctrine, and the parallels we can draw to our modern faith practices In this sermon, part 2 of our series in the book of Jude, Pastor Donald wades through Jude's stern warnings to the early church--stressing the urgency of safeguarding the Gospel message. Our deep dive reveals its striking relevance to today's Christians, calling us to anchor firmly in scriptural truth amid a culture veering toward moral relativism.

Through the lens of Jude's epistle, we grapple with the nature of false teachings that challenge the core of God's intentions for human sexuality and authority. As we recount the trials of Israel's exodus and the downfall of notorious biblical figures, we find stark parallels in our present-day attitudes toward these very issues. The conversation takes a turn, emphasizing the need for doctrinal soundness over personal revelations, a poignant reminder for our church community to remain steadfast in biblical conviction while navigating modern cultural challenges. It is only through the transformative power of the Gospel that we can resist cynicism and cling to the hope our faith provides.
