Is Jesus too good to be true? He promises to to take all our faults and blame, but is there a catch? Watch now to find out what it is and be reminded of the greatness of our God! We've reached the end of our series in Jude—and what a journey it's been! Jude has warned us about false teachers, challenged us to stay faithful, and encouraged us to confront with care. But he closes with one of the most powerful doxologies in Scripture—*a reminder* of God's power, His glory, and His unmatched ability to preserve us, present us blameless, and give us eternal hope. Jude 24–25 shows us why we can trust God completely, even in a world filled with chaos, conflict, and discouragement. Instead of withdrawing in fear, Jude calls us to lift our eyes and rejoice because of who God is. If you've been feeling weighed down by the brokenness of our world — wars, division, violence, and discord — this message will lift your heart and remind you of the greatness of our God.

Confrontation

Are you keeping yourself in God's love? Jude tells us to, but what does that even mean—and how do we do it? Today we continue our series on Jude and discover a shift from defense to offense. Jude challenges us to be active*, *intentional*, and *daily in building our faith. In verses 20-21 he gives a clear game plan for staying in God's love: •Build up our faith* •Pray in the Holy Spirit* •Actively and expectantly wait for Jesus* This isn't something we do once a week for an hour or two on Sunday. Jude is calling us to a DAILY way of life that transforms everything. Are you ready to take your faith to the next level?

⚠️ Are you protecting your faith? In Jude 17–19, we are reminded to remember what Jesus warned us about. That we need to protect our faith from the danger of being led away from God by lies, deception, and false teaching. In this message we dig into this sobering warning in Jude and see how it applies to our daily lives: How To Recognize Spiritual Danger Jude tells us there will be people who make fun of God's truth, live for their own desires, divide others, and are not led by the Spirit. These voices may come through culture, media, relationships, or even within the church. How can we identify them? How To Remember the Word The only way to recognize a lie is to know the truth. Jude calls us back to the words of the apostles—preserved for us in Scripture. We can't “remember” what we don't first know. Practical Steps for Everyday Faith • Establish a rhythm of opening God's Word in your home. • Commit to Scripture memory—individually or as a family. • Pay attention to what voices are shaping your worldview—friends, coworkers, media, music, or social feeds. Friends, the Christian life is not lived on autopilot. There is a battle for your soul. But God has given us His Word and His Spirit so we can stand firm, recognize deception, and cling to the truth.

An early student of Sigmund Freud, he coined the phrase "The Sexual Revolution” and “Orgone Energy.” Renata gives us some insight into his theories, methods, his many admirers and the political naysayers that sought to bring him down.https://wilhelmreichmuseum.orgwww.renatamoise.comSupport the show

Are you a grumbler… or an encourager?

"Only God can judge me." We've all heard it, maybe even said it. It's used as a shield to deflect criticism. But what if that phrase isn't the comfort we think it is? What if the reality of God's judgment is the most sobering and terrifying truth in the universe?

Listen to the second message in our series through the book of Jude. 

What if the greatest danger to your faith isn't outside the church… but sitting right next to you? In Jude 12--13, God gives six vivid warnings about people who secretly slip into the church, look spiritual on the outside, but leave destruction in their wake. They're like hidden reefs, selfish shepherds, waterless clouds, fruitless trees, wild waves, and wandering stars -- and if we're not careful, we can become just like them. In this message from our study in Jude, you'll discover: How to recognize false teachers and dangerous influences in your life The spiritual "red flags" every believer should watch for How to anchor your life so you don't drift into deception Practical steps to live, love, and lead like Jesus every day This is more than a warning -- it's an encouragement to examine your own heart, guard your faith, and stay rooted in the truth of God's Word. Scripture List: Jude 12-13

The Book of Jude - Pastor John Wilkerson - Wednesday Evening, August 6, 2025 by First Baptist Church of Hammond

The Slaves to Christ series continues with a new book, Jude. Pastor Derrick Bledsoe preaches on the 1st four verses of the book of Jude. 

Join us for a study through the brief but weighty book of Jude, emphasizing the importance of being vigilant against growing apostasy in the church.

Is your ambition leading you closer to God... or toward disaster? The Bible tells a shocking story of a man named Korah whose ambition led to him and his followers being literally swallowed by the earth. It's a terrifying and sober warning about a sin we are all susceptible to: rebellion born from pride. We dive deep into the story of Korah's Rebellion from Numbers 16, one of the most dramatic divine judgments in the Old Testament. Jude uses this historical event as a critical warning for the church today, and it's a message we can't afford to ignore. If we're not careful, the same spirit of discontentment, comparison, and selfish ambition that destroyed Korah can slip into our hearts, our homes, and our churches. In this message, you will learn: - The 3 fatal mistakes Korah made that we still make today. - The dangerous link between comparison, discontentment, and pride. - What the Bible really says about submitting to authority If this message blessed you, please LIKE the video, SUBSCRIBE to the channel, and hit the BELL icon so you never miss a study.

A talking donkey (yes really), a greedy prophet, and a deadly trap... It's not a movie plot; it's one of the most critical warnings in the Bible for the church today. Ever wonder if it's possible to be "spiritual" and even hear from God, but still be completely on the wrong path? The story of Balaam in the Old Testament is a chilling example. Jude warns us in Jude 1:11, “Woe to them! For they have... plunged into Balaam's error for profit.” In this sermon, we take a deep dive into the second warning of Jude 11: The Error of Balaam. We'll unpack the wild story from the book of Numbers and expose the four critical mistakes Balaam made—mistakes that false teachers and even well-meaning Christians are still making today. Join us as we uncover: ➡️ How to tell the difference between being "spiritual" and being truly Spirit-filled. ➡️ The seductive danger of using God's gifts for personal gain (the "prophet for profit" scheme). ➡️ How one person's compromise can lead thousands into sin, especially sexual sin. ➡️ The fatal pride of thinking you can get away with hidden sin. This isn't just an ancient story. It's a roadmap for protecting your faith and recognizing deceptive influences in our modern world of "Christian influencers" and prosperity gospels. Don't fall for the Error of Balaam. What was the most surprising part of Balaam's story for you? Let us know in the comments!

Today we look at one of the wildest passages in the New Testament (Jude 8–10) where we meet the Archangel Michael locked in a supernatural dispute with the devil himself over the body of Moses. Why would God include this strange story in the Bible? Because your place in God's story matters more than you think. You've been born into a cosmic battle between good and evil—and whether you know it or not, you're in the middle of it. In this message, you'll learn: - What it means to “know your place” in the spiritual war - Why many today mock or ignore the spiritual realm - How fake Christianity is exposed by instinct over obedience - Why humility and confidence are both required in spiritual warfare - What it means to walk in the authority of Christ, not your own If you've ever felt spiritually apathetic, confused, or intimidated—this message will wake you up and equip you with clarity and courage. Scripture List: - Jude 8-10 - Ephesians 6.12 - Daniel 10.11-12 - Philippians 2.7-8

Ever ignored a warning and instantly regretted it? What if I told you that three groups of people in the Bible made the same mistake - and their stories are meant to warn US today? In this powerful message, we dive deep into Jude 1:5-7 to uncover three sobering examples of what happens when God's warnings go unheeded: - The Israelites who wandered 40 years in the wilderness - The angels who abandoned their heavenly positions - Sodom and Gomorrah's fiery destruction But here's the thing - this isn't just about God's justice (though that's real). It's about His incredible love and the lengths He goes to protect us from ourselves. Scripture List: Jude 1.5–7 Genesis 6.4

Pastor John teaches from the book of Jude - June 29, 2025

Could fake faith be leading you away from Jesus? Jude warned the early church about his, and it's just as urgent today. In today's message we're opening up the powerful, short letter of Jude. He wrote this letter to sound the alarm for believers to guard the precious faith God has entrusted to us. Get ready to uncover the absolute centrality of Jesus Christ as "the way, the truth, and the life". We'll expose the "genuine fake" imitations that try to twist God's truth, just like those tricky shops in Ephesus! You'll also learn to spot the "wolves in sheep's clothing" that Jude warns us about – those who secretly slip into the church, perverting God's grace and denying Jesus as Lord. We'll use the classic story of Little Red Riding Hood to illustrate this vital spiritual danger. Whether you're a parent trying to raise kids in truth, a young adult wrestling with cultural messages, or a longtime believer needing clarity — this message will equip you to stand firm, spot the fake, and cling to what's real. Watch now and guard the faith entrusted to you. Scripture List: Jude 3-4 John 14.6 1 Corinthians 13 Ephesians 5 John 15.13 John 14.15
