These Filthy Dreamers-Vs 8

But he that keepeth the law, happy is he.

This is not speaking of having a vision for the future, but rather having a vision of God and His Word.

Thine own wickedness shall correct thee, and thy backslidings shall reprove thee: know therefore and see that it is an evil thing and bitter, that thou hast forsaken the Lord thy God, and that my fear is not in thee, saith the Lord God of hosts.

20 For of old time I have broken thy yoke, and burst thy bands; and thou saidst, I will not transgress; when upon every high hill and under every green tree thou wanderest, playing the harlot.

Thinking you don’t need God’s law to identify and avoid sin is a filthy dream

But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government.

Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.

Presumptuous people presume too much of others opinions and of their own opinions.

But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them; and my sabbaths they greatly polluted: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to consume them.

13 But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them; and my sabbaths they greatly polluted: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to consume them.

Israel-God's law is not to be trifled with, and this present day notion that we are free to live as we wish because we are under grace is dangerous doctrines of demons.

These Filthy Dreamers-Vs 8

And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time.

Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; 14 Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children: 15 Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;

Ungodly-There are those who are more concerned with their own pleasure and feelings than the truth of God's law as presented in Scripture.

Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?

6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.

7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.

8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

Anti-christ-The spirit of anti-christ is in all of this lawlessness.

These Filthy Dreamers-Vs 8

Jude showed this level of aggression because the opponents were dangerous: they rejected the moral authority of the law and claimed to be able to use their special revelation to become the new judge of what was orthodox belief and behavior.

They infiltrated the church, convincing people to listen to and follow their message.-Lexham

Micheal-Vs 9

Disputed

And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.

2 And the Lord said unto Satan, The Lord rebuke thee, O Satan; Even the Lord that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: Is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?

And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.

Durst not

Even the Lord that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee:

Is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?

Woe unto them-Vs 11

 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the Lord. 4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof.

And the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering: 5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect.

And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.

6 And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth?

and why is thy countenance fallen?

7 If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted?

and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door.

And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.

8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.

The “way of Cain” is the way of religion without faith, righteousness based on character and good works.

This example takes us back to , where Cain appears at the altar without a blood sacrifice.

The way of Cain is the way of man-made religion, rejecting the revelation of God and the blood of the Savior.
