Jude 24 King James Version (KJV)
24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,

Jude 24 Wycliffe Bible (WYC)

24 But to him that is mighty to keep you without sin, and to ordain before the sight of his glory you unwemmed in full out joy,

These are my thoughts.
There people out there that the Lord can put in our life to uplift us but no uplifting is better than that from the Lord Himself.

Jude 23 King James Version (KJV)
23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

Jude 23 The Voice (VOICE)

23 Pursue those who are singed by the flames of God’s wrath, and bring them safely to Him. Show mercy to others with fear, despising every garment soiled by the weakness of human flesh.

These are my thoughts.
When we follow the Lord and live like Christ we begin to hate sin.

I believe this means it is our responsibility to be obedient and live faithful lives unto our Lord Jesus Christ. Always being obedient and thankful when God’s pours His love out on us. We know that when we die or Christ returns it is His mercy that will escort us into eternal life with Him.

To remain in God’s love it remains in His ways and will.

An American English Bible
With Old Testament based on the Greek Septuagint
20 However, as for you, loved ones; Build the most Holy Faith in yourselves, pray through the Holy Breath,

Our faith is built on us talking with God thru prayer.

Jude 19 King James Version (KJV)
19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.


An American English Bible
With Old Testament based on the Greek Septuagint

19 These are the ones who will create divisions, for they are carnal and they don’t have the Breath [of God]!’

These are my thoughts.
The world causes division we are together thru our shared faith in Jesus.

Jude 18 King James Version (KJV)
18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

An American English Bible
18 remember that they used to say to you, ‘In the last days there will be those who speak disrespectfully as they go their own way and do godless things.

These are my thoughts.
People will be doing whatever they want and follow after what they want more than anything else.

Jude 16 King James Version (KJV)
16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.

American English Bible
16 For these men grumble and complain about how things work out, as they keep on doing whatever they wish. Yes, their mouths do a lot of bragging, and they feign admiration of people for their own [evil] purposes.

These are my thoughts.
There are people out there who you can not please but they only seek to please themselves.

Not all Muslims are terrorists, but 99% of terrorists are Muslim!!! Americans just don’t grasp the scope of the problem.....

Even IF only 1/2 of 1% of the 1.4 BILLION Muslims are radical, (that’s the LOWEST number I could find), that's 7 MILLION terrorists.

In contrast, at the start of WW-2,
Japan had Military of about 2 million with roughly 1.7 million in the Army.
Nazi Germany fielded an Armed force of about 10.8 million.

There are MORE Muslim terrorists today than the COMBINED Militaries of almost the entire Industrialized World!!!

At the rate the Western Civilization is killing the terrorists, a couple of dozen a week, even without procreation, the Sun will be dim before we even start to make a dent!!!

The last days are numbered.

Judgment Day will come our only hope is in Christ.

OBAMA INC has lost God's protection by lightening up our Nation's Capital with the gay mockery of the rainbow of peace.

Genesis 9 12 And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:
13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:
15 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.

2 Peter 3:7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

The Lord will return with His angels when the end comes.

Jude 13 King James Version (KJV)
13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.

An American English Bible
With Old Testament based on the Greek Septuagint


13 wild waves of the sea that foam shameful things on themselves… wandering stars that have been reserved for the gloom of age-long darkness.

These are my thoughts.
Those of the world dwell in the shame of their sin wandering around without any purpose.

Jude 12 King James Version (KJV)
12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;

An American English Bible
With Old Testament based on the Greek Septuagint
12 Why, at your loving [congregational] meals, they are like rocks that are hidden [below water] as they feast with you. They are fearless shepherds over just themselves… dry clouds that are blown in every direction by the wind… fruitless trees in late autumn that have died twice and been uprooted…


These are my thoughts.
There is an expression, a bad fruit spoils the bunch, we can allow those are bad to ruin the good we do, bad names and bad deeds are heard faster than good words or good deeds.

Jude 11 King James Version (KJV)
11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.

An American English Bible
With Old Testament based on the Greek Septuagint
11 So woe to them, because they’re going the way of Cain, they’ve rushed into the wrongs of BalaAm for a reward, and they’re destroying themselves with the rebellious words of KorAh!


These are my thoughts.
Cain was a murdered and a man who worshiped by self pride. Balaam was a man that tempted those of God with the flesh. Korah was a group of men that wanted control and leadership, we are not to follow what we want but what the Lord has for us.

Jude 10 King James Version (KJV)
10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.

An American English Bible
With Old Testament based on the Greek Septuagint

10 However, these men continue to speak disrespectfully of many things that they don’t really understand. So like senseless animals (who everyone knows [dirty themselves] naturally), they are messing on themselves [when they do] things like this.

These are my thoughts.
Our instinct or flesh will lead us only to things we understand, this why we need the Spirit to lead us in His way because it is not something we can ever fully understand.

Jude 9 King James Version (KJV)
9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

An American English Bible
With Old Testament based on the Greek Septuagint
9 Why, when MichaEl (the Highest Messenger [of God]) had an argument with the Slanderer over the body of Moses, he didn’t dare to judge him by speaking disrespectfully. All he said was, ‘May Jehovah give you what you deserve!’


These are my thoughts.
Angels draw from His power; we should do this as well because if they can not stand alone against Satan then we have no chance of standing against him unless we go to the Lord for the strength to overcome.

Jude 8 King James Version (KJV)
8 Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.

Jude 8 Common English Bible (CEB)

8 Yet, even knowing this, these dreamers in the same way pollute themselves, reject authority, and slander the angels.

Common English Bible (CEB) Copyright © 2011 by Common English Bible


These are my thoughts.
By following our flesh we reject the Lord.

Jude 7 King James Version (KJV)
7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

Jude 7 The Voice (VOICE)

7 Sodom and Gomorrah and all their neighbors were defeated by their own sexual perversions as they pursued the strange and unnatural impulses of the flesh. Let these who went their own way and are experiencing the eternal heat of God’s vengeance—a punishment by fire—be a warning to you.

These are my thoughts.
Committing sin always serves towards judgment of hell fire, our only hope is Jesus and having faith in Him.

Jude 6 King James Version (KJV)
6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.

Jude 6 New Life Version (NLV)

6 Angels who did not stay in their place of power, but left the place where they were given to stay, are chained in a dark place. They will be there until the day they stand before God to be judged.

New Life Version (NLV) Copyright © 1969 by Christian Literature International

These are my thoughts.
We should not give up the place the Lord has given us as these angels did, we keep serving in the place He has for us until he leads us else where.

Jude 5 King James Version (KJV)
5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.


Easy English Bible

5 I want to tell you again about certain things. You know these facts already, but I want you to remember them. Remember how the Lord brought Israel’s people out of the country called Egypt. At that time, he saved them. But later he destroyed all those people who did not believe him.

© Wycliffe Associates (UK), 1997-2003


These are my thoughts.
Thru the Lord we find salvation but if we reject Him then judgment will be found.

Jude 4 King James Version (KJV)
4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

Easy English Bible

4 I say this because certain bad men have come among you secretly. Those men do not want to obey God. Instead, they do whatever bad things they want to do. ‘God lets us do these things because he is so very kind’, they say. So they are trying to change God’s true message. And, because they do these things, they are turning away from our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. Many years ago, people wrote that God would punish this kind of bad people.

© Wycliffe Associates (UK), 1997-2003

These are my thoughts.
We have to watch for some people who come into the church because they very well could change the church into something that is not of the Lord.

Jude 3 King James Version (KJV)
3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.

Easy English Bible

3 My friends that I love, I was wanting very much to write to you. I was wanting to write about how God has saved all of us. But instead, now I must write to you about something else. I must ask you very strongly to be like people who fight to keep God’s true message safe. You must not let anyone stop you believing it. You must not let anyone stop you obeying it. God has given this true message to his people, and his message will never change.

© Wycliffe Associates (UK), 1997-2003

These are my thoughts.
We sometimes may have one message that we want to give but are lead to teach something else, we are to share what the Lord wants us to not what we want to.

We as Christians are all called by love for a service to Him.
