Jude: Contending for the Faith

Mercy & Doubt

October 27, 2024 • Greg Hyre • Jude 23–25

We are to show mercy—compassion and kindness—to others because Jesus showed mercy to us, and we are to represent Him to them.

But You

October 20, 2024 • Pastor Greg • Jude 17–21

We contend for the faith by sharing our “God stories,” building ourselves up in our faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, abiding in His love, and giving constant attention to Jesus’ return.

Godly Leaders

October 13, 2024 • Christian Stewart • Jude 8–16

To contend for the faith, we must not follow ungodly leaders, but only godly leaders who show integrity, humility and empathy. Ungodly leaders feed themselves while godly leaders feed others!

Authority

October 6, 2024 • Greg Hyre • Jude 4–8

As followers of Jesus, we submit to the absolute power of Christ, to His purpose and plan. God has given authority to the family to raise up children in His ways, to the government to serve the people responsibly, and to the church to bring His kingdom to all.

Sensuality

September 29, 2024 • Pastor Greg • Jude 4–8

Jude tells us to contend for the faith and keep our Church rooted in Christ, we must guard against those trying to change God’s boundaries, discern the value of our dreams against His Word, and refuse to use His grace to justify our sins.

Examples

September 22, 2024 • Pastor Greg • Jude 4–8

The authority of God is something Christians need to understand and follow. We have a responsibility to honor our sexuality in the boundaries of marriage God has placed on us.

Once for All

September 15, 2024 • Greg Hyre • Jude

All Christians are chosen by God to follow Jesus and are responsible to contend or fight for the faith!
