In this expositional teaching of the Epistle of Jude, I do a verse by verse – exegetical teaching through the Scriptures. ~ Bill Rhetts
The Epistle of Jude (Intro & verses 1-2)
Jude vs 3-4
A video teaching on ‘Contending for the Faith – Gods Way’ (Jude 1:3-4, plus two examples & a music finale).
What does it mean to Biblically ‘contend for the faith,’ and how do we do it? I also included two video excerpts of two different men preaching. One is a good Biblical example for contending for the faith, and the other a bad example (a local pastor). I also spoke about the masculinity crisis, and spiritually neutered men.
Jude vs 5-7
