Jude 17-23 (NASB) 17 But you, beloved, ought to remember the words that were spoken beforehand by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ, 18 that they were saying to you, “In the last time there will be mockers, following after their own ungodly lusts.” 19 These are the ones who cause divisions, worldly-minded, devoid of the Spirit. 20 But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, 21 keep yourselves in the love of God, looking forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life. 22 And have mercy on some, who are doubting; 23 save others, snatching them out of the fire; and on some have mercy with fear, hating even the garment polluted by the flesh. Three Imperatives that will help the Church battle together for the faith in an era of false teachers. Recall the previous warnings (v. 17-19) Remain in the love of God (v. 20-21) “building yourselves up on your most holy faith” (v. 20) “praying in the Spirit” (v. 20)

We continue the review of Philip Anthony Mitchell's sermon Contend for the Faith, examining his handling of Jude, his claims, his theology, and whether the message remains faithful to the text.

Main Idea. Kept for Christ, contend for Christ. 1. Kept (1–2) Rom 8:30: And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified. Thomas Manton, “Jesus Christ is the cabinet in which God's jewels are kept; so that if we would stand, we must get out of ourselves and get into him, in whom alone there is safety.” 2. Contend (3–4) Jude gives us two defining errors. A. They pervert grace. B. They deny Christ. Mark 2:4–7: 4 And when they could not get near him because of the crowd, they removed the roof above him, and when they had made an opening, they let down the bed on which the paralytic lay. 5 And when Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven.” 6 Now some of the scribes were sitting there, questioning in their hearts, 7 “Why does this man speak like that? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone? Takeaway. Contend for the faith (v.3). 1. Contend courageously, not contentiously. 2. Contend for the faith, not your favorites.

A review of Philip Anthony Mitchell's sermon Contend for the Faith, examining his handling of Jude, his claims, his theology, and whether the message remains faithful to the text.

OverviewThis episode of the Remnant Rising podcast urges believers to actively contend for a real move of God—revival—rather than waiting passively for it to arrive. The host emphasizes that revival is happening globally but requires personal and communal engagement, including obedience, consecration, and prayer. He frames revival as life against death and uses a biblical case study, King Hezekiah, to illustrate how proactive reform and radical devotion can invite the Lord's blessing and prosperity. The message also contrasts worship of past moves with pursuing fresh, present-day work of the Holy Spirit, and ends with practical calls to action (subscribe, share, and pray). The discussion weaves in biblical references (notably David, Moses, and the kings Hoshea, Elah, Ahaz, and Abi with Zechariah as his grandfather) to anchor the call to revival in a historically grounded faith.Main Points• Revival is not automatic; it requires contending for it through deliberate actions and choices.• The church is in a season of revival across the globe, and individuals can jump into God's current mov e of Spirit.• Jesus told the disciples to tarry in Jerusalem until endued with power; the implication is that “if tarry, then receive”—there is an if/then dynamic to revival.Revival is achieved by three core actions:• Obey your way into revival.• Consecrate your way into revival.• Pray your way into revival (including personal, secret-place prayer).Hezekiah serves as a case study: a king who did what was right in the sight of the Lord, modeled after David, and who actively dismantled idol worship (removing high places, breaking pillars, cutting down the wooden image, and smashing the bronze serpent Nehushtan).Hezekiah's reforms demonstrated dependence on the Lord: he held fast to the Lord, kept God's commandments, and the Lord was with him, causing him to prosper wherever he went.The text warns against worshiping past moves of God, urging fresh reliance on the present work of the Holy Spirit rather than relics of earlier miracles.The host discusses current moral issues (including abortion) to illustrate living out righteousness and not merely debating with words; personal obedience and action are essential.The episode ends with a practical appeals: subscribe, share, and a closing prayer for listeners to be equipped to contend for revival.Important DetailsBiblical setup: Hoshea was the king of Israel; Elah and Ahaz were in the lineage context; Hezekiah began to reign in the 3rd year of Hoshea, at age 25, and reigned 29 years in Jerusalem; his mother was Abi, daughter of Zechariah.Hezekiah's actions (2nd Kings 18, summarized): he removed the high places, broke the sacred pillars, cut down the wooden image, and broke in pieces the bronze serpent Nehushtan which had been worshipped due to old miracles.Spiritual posture: Hezekiah “held fast to the Lord,” did not depart from Him, and kept God's commandments given to Moses.Result for Hezekiah: “the Lord was with him,” and he prospered wherever he went; he even rebelled against the king of Assyria.The imagery of revival as life in an emergency room: revival means reviving a person from the brink of death, not simply occupying a bed in a building.Personal stance on moral issues: the host references the debate around abortion and asserts the sanctity of life, tying it to living out God's standard of righteousness rather than merely discussing it.Emphasis on the secret place: true revival is anchored in personal, private prayer and obedience, not just public displays.Key Information• Central claim: revival requires human initiative and concrete decisions; it is the consequence of premeditated, intentional acts that lead to life.• Case study reference: Hezekiah as a modern-day analog for revival through decisive reform and faithfulness to God's standards (mirrored in the life of David).Core methods to contend for revival:• Obedience to God's standard of living and commandments (not relying on outward religiosity or past moves).• Consecration—setting oneself apart from cultural norms to remain distinct in holiness.• Prayer—especially personal, secret-place prayer as the primary engine of revival.• The host's exhortation to live out revival in the face of cultural and moral challenges, including calls to stand for life and righteousness.Engagement prompts: subscription and sharing to spread the message; a closing prayer asking for God to empower listeners to contend for revival.ConclusionThe episode argues that revival is active and negotiable, not passive history. By studying Hezekiah, believers learn that true revival flows from obeying God's commands, consecrating oneself to God, and maintaining intimate prayer with Him. The presence of the Lord with a person or a nation brings prosperity and victory over opposition, illustrating that revival is both spiritual and practical. The call to action is clear: engage with the message, subscribe, share, and press into personal revival through obedience, consecration, and prayer, trusting that the Holy Spirit will move in the present hour through the remnant who hunger for God.Thanks for reading StrongFaith.co!

Contend for the faith once delivered to the saints without apology or compromise.

ESPN says the Chicago Bulls may not seriously contend until 2032 — but is that timeline fair, or way too pessimistic?On today's Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down ESPN placing the Bulls in its “Maybe by 2032” tier, a group built around teams that may have promising young talent but still look years away from true championship contention. The logic is understandable: Chicago is coming off a 31-win season, finished near the bottom of the league offensively and defensively, and still has a new front office, new coach and unproven young core.But Haize pushes back on the idea that Chicago automatically needs most of the decade before it can matter again. If Caleb Wilson becomes a true franchise player, the rebuild changes immediately. If Matas Buzelis makes a Year 3 leap into borderline All-Star territory, the Bulls may already have two major pieces. And if Josh Giddey settles in as an elite connector rather than trying to be the superstar, Chicago's timeline could move up fast.Haize also looks at why ESPN has a point: the Bulls do not yet have a proven No. 1 option, lack meaningful playoff experience, still have major defensive questions, and are rebuilding in a crowded Eastern Conference. But in today's NBA, six years is an eternity — and if Wilson, Buzelis, Giddey, Nic Claxton, Tiago Splitter and Bryson Graham hit the right developmental checkpoints, Chicago could enter serious contention conversations closer to 2029 or 2030 than 2032.

Yorkville coach Dan McGuire says it's pretty rare for a team to return one of its strongest units largely intact, but that's exactly what the Foxes have. Bryce Baxa, James Sapp Jr. and Mark Smith III are back on the defensive line after contributing to last year's playoff run.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/friday-night-drive--3534096/support.

Your voice, your cry, your worship — they have the ability to move the hand of God. Pastor Sheryl Brady reminds us that worship isn't passive. When singers and dancers preceded Israel into battle in the Old Testament, their enemies weren't frightened by their talent. They trembled because of the manifested presence of God that worship stirs up. Yet, we often burden our worship leaders and teams to carry what should come from within us. Our thirst for righteousness dictates our worship. Jesus paid a debt we couldn't pay. That alone is worth contending for. This is the season to stop loving God from a distance. Contend for His presence. Cry out for His glory. Watch what happens when His presence enters a room. Worship transports us from one dimension into another. It invites heaven into earth and changes circumstances. We can't survive without Him. The sooner we abandon comfort and embrace this truth, the sooner our praise will follow. Message: “A Post Moving Praise” Scripture: Habakkuk 2:14 (KJV), Isaiah 6:1-4 (KJV) Speaker: Pastor Sheryl Brady Date: Aug. 2, 2026 ✨ Welcome to Your Moment of Transformation You don't have to walk this journey alone. Let Jesus guide your steps and fill your life with purpose and peace.

How do we contend for the faith? This week in Atlanta, GA, Executive Pastor Trevor Bramblett closed our study of Jude by exploring how to keep ourselves in God's love and build one another up in the faith.

In the midst of the 15-game winning streak from the Red Sox, they won in every which way to show the contenders they should be. Do you take the Sox seriously for the playoffs and even championships? Then, speculation about why Tom Brady is getting involved with the WWE and a review of the Weird Al concert in the Arcand Fire. And, it may be a small slate of games, but enough to present you with The Dong Report.

Israel is in crisis, living in fear and hiding due to Midianite raids. Despite their disobedience, God responds to their cries for help. The angel of the LORD appears to Gideon, calling him to save Israel. Gideon, initially doubtful, tests God's call and receives confirmation through miraculous signs. Commanded to destroy his father's altar to Baal, Gideon obeys, earning the nickname Jerubbaal. With just 300 men, God delivers a stunning victory over a vast Midianite coalition. However, Gideon's story concludes with a cautionary note as he leads Israel back into idolatry, continuing the cycle of disobedience. Support the showRead along with us in the Bible Brief App!

Have you ever been in a conversation where someone said something about Christianity that you knew was not right — but you struggled to articulate exactly why? That is the conversation that prompted this episode. In this honest and grace-filled exploration of Christian apologetics, Tanya Engesether shares a personal interaction that left her convicted — not of wrongdoing, but of the need to go deeper into the foundations of her faith. To know not just what she believes, but why it matters. And to be able to say so graciously when a conversation requires it. In this episode Tanya addresses two of the most foundational doctrines in Christian belief — the Holy Trinity and the finality of salvation in this life — with theological substance, scriptural grounding, historical context, and a consistent spirit of grace toward those who hold different views. She explores what is actually at stake if the Trinity is wrong — why it is not a secondary theological detail but the load-bearing wall of everything Christianity teaches about salvation and the character of God. She walks through the key Scriptures on post-mortem salvation and the finality of the opportunity for salvation in this life. And she addresses the question every thoughtful Christian wrestles with: what about those who never heard? Throughout, the spirit of 1 Peter 3:15 guides the episode: always be prepared to give an answer — with gentleness and respect. This is not an episode about winning arguments. It is an episode about knowing the God you love well enough to describe Him accurately — and about holding that truth with enough grace that it can actually reach the people you care about. In This Episode You'll Learn: Why doctrine is not the opposite of relationship — it is the description of the One we are in relationship with The difference between secondary issues Christians can disagree about and load-bearing doctrinal walls What the Holy Trinity actually is — simply, accessibly, without academic jargon Why the Trinity is not just a theological technicality but the foundation of how salvation works What is actually at stake if Jesus is not fully God — the salvific implications Key Scriptures on the Trinity — John 1:1, John 10:30, Matthew 28:19, Genesis 1:26 The historical context of Nicaea and the Arian heresy — and why it is still relevant today What Scripture teaches about the finality of salvation in this life The parable of the rich man and Lazarus — what it reveals about the state after death The difference between Catholic purgatory and post-mortem salvation theology The compassionate answer to "what about those who never heard?" The spirit of 1 Peter 3:15 — how to hold hard conversations with gentleness and respect Why knowing what you believe is not arrogance — it is an act of love What Jude 3 calls every Christian to — and what contending for the faith actually looks like Scripture Referenced 1 Peter 3:15 — "Always be prepared to give an answer... with gentleness and respect." John 1:1 — "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." John 10:30 — "I and the Father are one." Matthew 28:19 — "Baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." Genesis 1:26 — "Let us make mankind in our image." 1 John 4:8 — "God is love." Hebrews 9:27 — "It is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment." Luke 16:19-31 — The parable of the rich man and Lazarus 2 Corinthians 6:2 — "Now is the day of salvation." Romans 3:26 — "The just and the justifier." Jude 3 — "Contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to God's holy people." John 14:16-17 — Jesus promises another Counselor Philippians 2:9-11 — "The name above every name." Key Takeaway Knowing what you believe — and being able to say it graciously — is one of the most loving things you can do. The Trinity is not a theological technicality. It is the load-bearing wall of Christian salvation. The finality of salvation is not a harsh rule. It is the foundation of the gospel's urgency. And being rooted in these truths — able to hold them and articulate them with grace — is an act of faithfulness to God and love toward the people around you.   I hope this episode blesses you!

Splinter Parties and the Global Shadow Guest: David Pietrusza Book Title: Roosevelt Sweeps Nation: FDR's 1936 Landslide and the Triumph of the Liberal Ideal Beyond populist insurgents, Roosevelt had to contend with the Socialistand Communist parties, which held significant sway in urban centers. The Socialists, led by Norman Thomas, appealed to the intellectual "proto-faction" in New York City, drawing hundreds of thousands of votes. More complex was the role of the Communist Party USA, led by Earl Browder, who was hand-picked by Stalin for his compliance. Under Stalin's"Popular Front" strategy to combat Hitler, the Communists shifted from attacking Roosevelt as a "tool of Wall Street" to offering a deceptive endorsement. Browder realized an open endorsement would be the "kiss of death," so the party ran its own campaign while focusing its firepower on Roosevelt's opponents. This radicalism extended to the Midwest with the Farmer-Labor Party, led by figures like Minnesota Governor Floyd Olson. Olson, a radical agrarian who also harbored presidential ambitions for 1940, presided over a volatile political climate where political violence was not uncommon. These movements reflected a "different political geography" where radical agrarianism and urban socialism threatened to peel away parts of the Democratic electorate. Roosevelt remained wary of these factions, particularly in New York and California, where they were most active. Internationally, the brewing Spanish Civil War and the rise of European dictators added urgency to the domestic political landscape, as the Communists sought to keep Roosevelt in power as a potential ally against fascism.
