As pastors one of areas of responsibility is to watch over the spiritual well-being of God people and to protect the people, the church community, and those in our sphere of influence from things that would cause harm to our faith in the Lord and His Word, or take us away from the purity, simplicity and originality of the faith God has given to us. We do not want a corrupted version of faith in Jesus Christ, but an authentic, pure, true to God, kind of faith. The concern that is presented in Scripture is the work and influence of ungodly people who corrupt the purity of what has been given to us. It is about people who would draw believers away after themselves, using deceit, cunning and trickery to cause people to waver and wander away from the faith that was once delivered to the saints. This Sermon brings our attention to Jude chapter 1. Here, Jude describes these people who we must beware of and guard against in order to “contend earnestly for the faith which was once delivered to the saints”. We also examine the instructions believers are to follow in view of influences from such people. We also bring our attention to some action we can take as believers today to “contend earnestly for the faith which was once delivered to the saints”: Keep our faith and the church free from dead religion. Keep our faith and the church free from compromise. Keep our faith and the church free from politics. Keep our faith and the church free from hate.
