Hey Jude!

Here we are with ANOTHER letter that seems to be addressing yet another messed-up Church.

In fact it seems A LOT of the New Testament is responding to messed-up churches...It makes you wonder if the whole enterprise is worth the effort, or if it should be abandoned (as many people that you probably know have decided).

But in fact, that's WHY so much ink in the Bible is given to maintaining a healthy church. It's just that important! It's Jesus' plans for changing the world and He doesn't need a backup plan.

Jude tells us to CONTEND for the truth... to FIGHT for a healthy church... to even get TOUGH with those who sneak in and try to dismantle what God has built.

It's a fight worth having.
