“Beloved, … I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.” (Jude 1:3)
Jude found it necessary to write his Christian audience exhorting them to content earnestly for the faith.
The faith refers to that body of doctrine or truth that was given by God through Jesus and the Apostles to the church. Why did Jude find it necessary to exhort his audience to contend earnestly for the faith? Because the faith was under strong attack. Sound familiar?
Will you fight for the faith? To fight will cost you time, energy, focus and sacrifice. Previous generations fought for your faith, will you pay it forward and fight for the next generation’s faith?
