1. From Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and the brother of James.To all who are chosen and loved by God the Father and are kept safe by Jesus Christ.

2. I pray that God will greatly bless you with kindness, peace, and love!

3. My dear friends, I really wanted to write to you about God's saving power at work in our lives. But instead, I must write and ask you to defend the faith that God has once for all given to his people.

4. Some godless people have sneaked in among us and are saying, “God treats us much better than we deserve, and so it is all right to be immoral.” They even deny that we must obey Jesus Christ as our only Master and Lord. But long ago the Scriptures warned that these godless people were doomed.

5. Don't forget what happened to those people that the Lord rescued from Egypt. Some of them did not have faith, and he later destroyed them.
