The Beginning and the End

Scripture: Revelation 1

"I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End," says the Lord, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty." (Revelation 1:8; NKJV).

Where do we begin?

Where do we end?

Every question begins and ends with Jesus.

A Doxology

Scripture: Jude 24-25

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling,

And to present you faultless

Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy,

To God our Savior,

Who alone is wise,

Be glory and majesty,

Dominion and power,

Both now and forever.

Amen.

NKJV

Two Types of Sinners

Scripture: Jude 22-23

According to Jude 22-23, there are two types of sinners.

1. Those who need compassion - "And on some have compassion, making a distinction"

2. Those who need something more intense - "but others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh."

Pray in the Spirit for the wisdom to know the difference!

The Jude 20-21 "To Do" List

1. Build yourselves up on your most holy faith!

2. Pray in the Holy Spirit!

3. Keep yourselves in the love of God!

4. Look for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life!

Certain Men

Scripture: Jude 3-19

"For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ" (Jude 4).

Verses 5-19 of Jude address God's attitude and plan for "certain men." God has had dealings with folks like this in the past. He is aware of the present state of things. The future doesn't threaten Him.

We can avoid the judgment of "certain men" if we will but "remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ" (Jude 17).
