Sermon Text
As we prepare our hearts to hear God’s Word, let us turn to the letter of Jude.
If you have a Bible from home, you can find this hidden letter by finding the beginning of Revelation and turning back a page.
Or, you could turn to page 1027 in the pew Bible you find in the rack in front of you.
Hear the Word of the Lord!
Jude
The Book of Jude
May the Lord bless the reading of His Word.
Introduction
The Book of Jude… well, perhaps, it might be better called the letter of Jude due to its length… begins in the similar fashion of many letters we find in the New Testament.
Jude posits his position as a servant of Jesus Christ and brother of James.
If we were to stop and think a minute on the person of James, we might remember that James was the (half)brother of Jesus.
So, at the very beginning of this letter, Jude declares his relationship to Christ not as a brother, but rather, Christ’s servant.
He, then, explains who his audience is at the end of verse one saying that this letter is:
To those who are called, beloved in God the Father and kept for Jesus Christ
This letter is written to God’s people, those whom the Holy Spirit has called to Himself, they are loved by the Father because of what Christ has done at the Cross.
In these short verses, we find in verse 2 a prayer where Jude hopes that mercy, peace and love are multiplied as God’s Word is shared.
May that be our prayer this morning as well.
