The little book of Jude is seldom read, and rarely preached—much to the loss of the Body of Christ. Whereas today many messages and ministries are trumpets giving an uncertain call (1Co 4:8), this small book is a clear call to believers in Jesus Christ to enter the invisible war raging from the beginning of time. In the age-old campaign of Satan against God, the issue is always truth or deception (Joh 8:44–45). Thus, Jude confronts the deceivers of his time with the timeless truth of the good news of life in Christ, and challenges those who have received this life to “contend earnestly [struggle valiantly] for the faith.”

1 Thessalonians #18

Review of Sanctification. Sanctification is a one-word summary for the Will of God for our lives. 1Th 4:3- With liberty comes responsibility. We must be willing at times to separate from normally authorized things for the cause of Christ. God is the guardian of these boundaries. Numbers 6:1-12 Nazarite vow-separate themselves unto the Lord. These represent outward manifestations of inward sacrifices we must sometimes make to serve Christ. Judges 13:5, 13:25, 14:1-6, 14:7-9 Samson's example of the Nazarite vow. God works in the world as it is not as we wish it were. Heb 11:32-34

Scripture References: Hebrews 11:32-34, Judges 14:7-9, Judges 14:1-6, Judges 13:25, Judges 13:5, Numbers 6:1-12, 1 Thessalonians 4:3

The Thessalonians were persecuted for their faith. Paul's first letter to them provides comfort, reminding them of the details of Christ's return for His Church ("The Blessed Hope") and providing practical spiritual lessons for living.
