But you, dear friends, must Build Up Your Lives Ever More Strongly
Upon The Foundation Of Our Holy Faith, Learning To Pray In The Power And
Strength Of The Holy Spirit. Stay
always within the boundaries where God’s love can reach and bless you. Wait
patiently for the eternal life that our Lord Jesus Christ in his mercy is going
to give you. Try to help those who argue
against you. Be merciful to those who doubt.
To: ALL WHO HAVE EARS TO HEAR
From: GOD THE FATHER, THE LORD
JESUS CHRIST HIS SON and Ministered through the HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD, The Helper, that He may be
with you forever. [John 14:16]
Subject: MY WORD; John 1:1 (NKJV) 1 In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God, and the
Word was God. John
1:14 (NKJV) 14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us,
and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full
of grace and truth.
Isaiah 7:10–16 (NKJV) 10 Moreover the Lord
spoke again to Ahaz, saying, 11 “Ask a sign for yourself from the Lord your God; ask it either in the
depth or in the height above.” 12 But Ahaz said, “I will not
ask, nor will I test the Lord!” 13 Then he said, “Hear now, O house of David! Is it a small
thing for you to weary men, but will you weary my God also? 14 Therefore the Lord Himself
will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and
shall call His name Immanuel. 15 Curds and honey He shall eat, that He may know to refuse the evil
and choose the good. 16 For before the Child shall know to refuse the evil and choose the
good, the land that you dread will be forsaken by both her kings.
Psalm 118:22–29 (Tanakh) 22 The stone that the builders
rejected has become the chief
cornerstone. 23 This is the Lord’s doing; it is marvelous in our sight. 24 This is
the day that the Lord has made— let us exult and rejoice on it. 25 O Lord, deliver us! O Lord, let us
prosper! 26
May he who enters be blessed in the name of the Lord; we bless you from
the House of the Lord. 27 The Lord is God; He has given us light; bind the festal offering to the horns of the
altar with cords. 28 You are my God and I will praise You; You are my God and I will extol You. 29
Praise the Lord for He
is good, His steadfast love is eternal.
Jude 1 - 24 (The Living Bible) 1 From: Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ,
and a brother of James. To: Christians everywhere—beloved of God and chosen by him. 2 May you be given more and more of God’s kindness, peace, and love. 3 Dearly loved friends, I had been planning to write you some
thoughts about the salvation God has given us, but now I find I must write of
something else instead, urging you to
stoutly defend the truth that God gave once for all to his people to keep
without change through the years. 4 I say this because some godless teachers have
wormed their way in among you, saying that after we become Christians we can do
just as we like without fear of God’s punishment. The fate of such people was
written long ago, for they have turned against our only Master and Lord, Jesus
Christ. 5
My answer to them is: Remember this fact—which you know
already—that the Lord saved a whole nation of people out of the land of Egypt
and then killed every one of them who did not trust and obey him. 6 And I remind you of those angels who were once pure and holy but
turned to a life of sin. Now God has them chained up in prisons of darkness,
waiting for the judgment day. 7 And don’t forget the cities of Sodom and
Gomorrah and their neighboring towns, all full of lust of every kind, including
lust of men for other men. Those cities were destroyed by fire and continue to
be a warning to us that there is a hell in which sinners are punished. 8 Yet these false teachers carelessly go right on living their evil,
immoral lives, degrading their bodies and laughing at those in authority over
them, even scoffing at the Glorious Ones. 9 Yet Michael, one of the mightiest of the
angels, when he was arguing with Satan about Moses’ body, did not dare to
accuse even Satan, or jeer at him, but simply said, “The Lord rebuke you.” 10 But these men mock and curse at anything they do not understand,
and like animals, they do whatever they feel like, thereby ruining their souls. 11 Woe upon them! For they follow the example of Cain who killed his
brother; and like Balaam, they will do anything for money; and like Korah, they
have disobeyed God and will die under his curse. 12 When these
men join you at the love feasts of the church, they are evil smears among you,
laughing and carrying on, gorging and stuffing themselves without a thought for
others. They are like clouds blowing over dry land without giving rain,
promising much, but producing nothing. They are like fruit trees without any
fruit at picking time. They are not only dead, but doubly dead, for they have
been pulled out, roots and all, to be burned. 13 All they
leave behind them is shame and disgrace like the dirty foam left along the
beach by the wild waves. They wander around looking as bright as stars, but
ahead of them is the everlasting gloom and darkness that God has prepared for
them. 14
Enoch, who lived
seven generations after Adam, knew about these men and said this about them:
“See, the Lord is coming with millions of his holy ones. 15 He will bring the people of
the world before him in judgment, to receive just punishment and to prove the
terrible things they have done in rebellion against God, revealing all they
have said against him.” 16 These men are constant gripers, never satisfied, doing whatever
evil they feel like; they are loudmouthed “show-offs,” and when they show
respect for others, it is only to get something from them in return. 17 Dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ
told you, 18 that in the last times there would come these scoffers whose whole
purpose in life is to enjoy themselves in every evil way imaginable. 19 They stir up arguments; they love the evil things of the world;
they do not have the Holy Spirit living in them. 20
But you, dear
friends, must build up your lives ever more strongly upon the foundation of our
holy faith, learning to pray in the power and strength of the Holy Spirit. 21 Stay always within the boundaries where God’s love can reach and
bless you. Wait patiently for the eternal life that our Lord Jesus Christ in
his mercy is going to give you. 22 Try to help those who argue against you. Be merciful to those who
doubt. 23 Save some by snatching them as from the very flames of hell itself.
And as for others, help them to find the Lord by being kind to them, but be
careful that you yourselves aren’t pulled along into their sins. Hate every
trace of their sin while being merciful to them as sinners. 24 And now—all glory to him who
alone is God, who saves us through Jesus Christ our Lord; yes, splendor and
majesty, all power and authority are his from the beginning; his they are and
his they evermore shall be. And he is able to keep you
from slipping and falling away, and to bring you, sinless and perfect, into his
glorious presence with mighty shouts of everlasting joy. Amen. Jude

Living God to give you the interpretation.
2 Peter 1:16–21
(Williams) 16 For it was not mere stories of fancy
that we followed when we told you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For when He
received such honor and glory from God the Father, when from the majestic glory
there was borne to Him a voice like this, “This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom
I take delight.” 18 we heard this voice ourselves borne from heaven
while we were with Him on that sacred mountain. 19 So we have the
message of the prophets more certainly guaranteed. Please pay attention to this message as to a
lamp that is shining in a dismal place, until the day dawns and the morning
star rises in your hearts; 20 because you recognize this truth above
all else, that no prophecy in Scripture
is to be interpreted by one’s own mind, 21 for no prophecy has
ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by the Holy Spirit
spoke from God.]
Philippians 2:9–11 (The Living
Bible) 9 Yet it was because of this that God raised him up to the heights
of heaven and gave him a name which is above every other name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee shall
bow in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue
shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
