Do you think that the following verses point to a time two thousand years later? The Bible was written to the people of that time, not to us. Don’t get me wrong, we need to learn everything we can about what the Bible teaches, but we need to read it with clear eyes, understanding that we were not the ones these letters were written to. There was a seven-year war between the Romans and the J*ws around 70 AD, and the temple fell three and a half years after it began. This war coincides with the seven-year tribulation that was prophesied. Jesus said that some will not taste death before they see him coming into his kingdom; ask yourself, are there people living today that are over 2,000 years old? 

We cannot just gloss over these verses and give them a meaning different from what they say directly. We may be living in the little season of deception, where the devil and his cronies have been loosed. The enemy changes the times, calendars are manipulated, history is recreated to fit a narrative, all done by a being who has seen everything and can give us a new reality without us knowing it. However, as his season comes to an end, he can no longer keep up with the people who are waking up. The curtains are being opened, and the light is shining through. Tribulation is not on the horizon; that has already happened. However, there is more to come: Gog and Magog and the final Great White Throne judgment. 

J*wish history backs up everything. Even the elect have been deceived, but we don’t have to be. The Bible points to the truth, but the enemy has given us a deceitful narrative to keep us blinded and in fear of tribulation. Relax and fear not because the best is yet to come!

*Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom. Matthew 16:28

*But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come. Matthew 10:23

*Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. Matthew 24:34

*And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power. Mark 9:1

*Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done. Mark 13:30

*But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none; 1 Corinthians 7:29

*But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. 1 Peter 4:7

*For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. Hebrews 10:37

*The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: Revelation 1:1

*Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. Revelation 1:7

*I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. Revelation 1:9

*And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. Revelation 22:12

Persevere in Holiness and Truth

As daunting as the times we live in are, we can be thankful that God gives us directions to follow that help us maintain a good relationship with Him. 

1. Building up yourselves in your most holy faith. Jude 1:20
2. Praying in the Holy Ghost. Jude 1:20
3. Keep yourselves in the love of God. Jude 1:21
4. Looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. Jude 1:21
5. Have compassion. Jude 1:22

And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. Jude 1:23

What more could we ask for? God gives us steps for righteous living, and they aren’t that hard. What Jude doesn’t tell us is how satisfying it is to live by faith in Jesus and that we can stop looking to fill the gaps in our emptiness, because Jesus fills that gap, and his love overflows within us, spilling onto everyone we meet, whether they accept that love or not. Hopefully, they will see and wonder how they might receive some of what we have. Jesus is the only way to live without shame in a world that is full of corruption; seek him before it’s too late.

Judgment is Coming

It's not a sin to ask questions. The powers of this earth may not like you thinking for yourself and discarding the narrative, but it is a healthy way to sort through the information you hear. Jude mentions Enoch and his prediction of Jesus coming with 10,000 angels to execute judgment. I looked up the Book of Enoch to see if I could find what he is talking about, and I found that it is more than 10,000 and probably innumerable. Enoch is not part of the canon of scripture, but it is an interesting read nonetheless. 

And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speecheswhich ungodly sinners have spoken against him. Jude 1:14-15

What an exciting time to live! With the cognitive dissonance we see daily, not only on television, but in our daily lives with people and their outlandish ideas, we must be close to the end. People have fallen for the ungodly narrative and cannot be convinced to see things in any other way. They are angry, obsessed, chaotic, confused, and their minds are disheveled to the point that I don't think they can come back from their madness. Look at this verse and tell me we aren't living with these people mentioned here:

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. Jude 1:16

Pity these people and do your best to try to convince them that the only way is Jesus. Some will hear you, but most will not. However, it is part of our commission to tell them about Jesus and snatch them from the fire.

Avoid Fruitless Arguments

As tempting as it may be, we need to refrain from arguing with others. Because we are in a time when evil beings present themselves as light, we must be cautious about how we speak to others and abstain from getting into a verbal match, because we cannot win. If a demon controls the person you have a problem with, they are more powerful and more cunning than you because they were once part of God’s kingdom and know how things work; our skills are very primitive in comparison. That’s why Jude cautions us not to bash them and use fewer words to rebuke them. Even Jesus refrained from arguing with Satan when he was being tempted in the wilderness, and when Peter used words that came from Satan, Jesus only said, “Get the behind me Satan.” Even Michael the archangel withheld his tongue when disputing with Satan.

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. Jude 1:9

We are part of the kingdom of God, and it is beneath us to engage in a war of words with the enemy, especially when he is using a fleshly being as a weapon. Whatever the argument is about, it’s not worth losing your dignity over. Remember, you represent Jesus in all your dealings, so keep your responses short but composed so you are not corrupted.

Pray for discernment before reading!

Reading Jude in context makes it seem as if the evil among us might be those angelic beings cast down from times of old. We know they are here, but we think they are invisible, but are they? Could these entities, that live here, disguise themselves as humans? If you think about it, our bodies are simply the containers of our souls. Could these empty vessels be part of our everyday lives, and some of them standing in church pulpits? Are they the false teachers Peter warned us about? The heading for this section of my Bible is labeled “Judgment on False Teachers,” but Jude doesn’t mention them, though it is likely what he is talking about. The reason I say this is because, look at this verse:

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. Jude 1:4

“Who were before of old ordained to condemnation,” we know that those who were cast out of heaven are of old and are ordained for condemnation! Jude is warning us not to mess with these beings because they are very powerful. We need to read our Bibles with discernment, and sometimes we need to ignore the headings because those were likely added later and not part of the actual letters.
