It is attributed to Jude, who is identified as one of the twelve apostles and the brother of St. James. This book likely dates from the early Christian period, around the 1st century AD, a time when the foundational beliefs and teachings of Christianity were being established and disseminated. The primary topic of this epistle revolves around urging believers to uphold their faith against heretical teachings and immoral practices. In this epistle, Jude addresses the early Christian community, warning them against false teachers who have infiltrated their ranks. He describes these heretics using vivid imagery, drawing parallels to famous biblical figures such as Cain and Balaam, emphasizing their destructive ways. Jude encourages his readers to remain steadfast in their beliefs and to contend earnestly for the faith that was originally delivered to them. He highlights the importance of maintaining moral integrity and spiritual vigilance, ultimately concluding with a doxology, praising God and urging the faithful to seek His protection against sin. The epistle serves both as a cautionary message and a source of encouragement for believers to perseverance in their faith. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
