Micah gives the time of writing as “in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah,” (Mic 1:1). This places his ministry from about 740 to 710 B.C. This book of his prophecies was likely compiled around 700 B.C. He was a contemporary of the prophet Isaiah. His name is a shortened form of “Micaiah” (cf. 1Ki 22:8–28, another prophet), meaning “Who is like Jehovah.” Gene Cunningham - January 9, 2003
Jude #1
Introduction and premise: How do we contend for the faith? The objective of the faith is a relationship with God. Heb 11:6, "Without faith it is impossible to please God." Rom 10:14-17 Faith comes by hearing and hearing the Word of God. Jud 1-4; the believer is "called" through the Gospel, "sanctified" by the work of the Holy Spirit--set apart to God as His personal possession; "preserved" = the eternal security of the believer; 2Pe 1:21; 1Co 2:14; 2Ti 3:16; Mat 4:4; The five aspects of the Inerrancy of Scripture: Revelation, Inspiration, Preservation, Illumination, and Interpretation
