“and others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.”
Jude 1:23 KJV
Jude writes in his epistle to snatch others out of the fire to save them. Be merciful over and over to them, but always couple your mercy with the fear of God. Be extremely careful to keep yourselves free from the pollutions of the flesh. We do all we can to bring others to Christ, but not at the expense of becoming like them in ignoring sin. Jude tells us to: keep building up our inner lives on the foundation of faith; pray in the Holy Spirit; fasten our life to the love of God; receive more mercy from our Lord Jesus Christ; have compassion on the wavering; share the Gospel with those who are lost; hate any compromise that will stain our lives. Let’s cooperate with the Holy Spirit and be obedient to the Word. Amen!
