Jude 1 — Context

These are they who cause divisions, and are sensual, not having the Spirit.

But you, beloved, keep building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit.

Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life.

On some have compassion, making a distinction,

and some save, snatching them out of the fire with fear, hating even the clothing stained by the flesh.

Now to him who is able to keep them from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory in great joy,

to God our Savior, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen.
