R³ Devotional - Day 359
R³ Devotional - Day 359 - Jude 1
By: Anderson Baptist Church
Real Life Principle
The central principle of the Book of Jude is to earnestly contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints (Jude 1:3). This involves actively defending the core truths of the gospel against false teachers and influences that distort God's grace, promote immorality, and deny Christ's authority, while remaining steadfast in personal faith and holiness.
Relevant Applications
1. In the church community: Believers should be vigilant against teachings or leaders that twist grace into a license for sin or downplay Jesus' lordship, ensuring doctrine aligns with apostolic truth.
2. In personal life: Recognize that false influences often lead to moral compromise, so prioritize obedience and holiness over cultural or permissive interpretations of Christianity.
3. In evangelism and discipleship: When sharing the gospel, emphasize the full truth of salvation—including repentance and submission to Christ—rather than a watered-down version that ignores judgment on rebellion.
Ready Action Steps
1. Study and know the core doctrines of the faith deeply through regular Bible reading and sound teaching, so you can discern truth from error.
2. Build yourself up spiritually by praying in the Holy Spirit, which is praying in line with the word of God and His will, staying rooted in God's love, and growing in faith (Jude 1:20-21).
3. Respond compassionately but cautiously to those influenced by false teaching—show mercy to doubters, rescue others urgently, but avoid being pulled into sin yourself (Jude 1:22-23).
