Word of God

Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God
Matthew 4:4

The Epistle of Jude 1:14-15
Commentary by Doktor Riktor Von Zhades

14 And Enoch also the seventh from Adam, prophesied of such, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with thousands of his Saints, 15 To give judgment against all men, and to rebuke all the ungodly among them of all their wicked deeds, which they have ungodly committed, and of all their cruel speakings, which wicked sinners have spoken against him.

Brethren:

Of Enoch, we know very little other than what is mentioned in Genesis Chapter 5. But we do read that he had long ago prophesied the coming day of judgment. Also again we reference the Second Epistle of Peter who writes; “then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment” My friends give heed to and make note of the above scriptures. They are indeed a warning about all that are false and deceitful in their relationships with the believers and to Him that gave us life eternal. Carefully discern and ferret out these persons so they will not be able turn others away from the truth with lies, and with words carefully crafted to make the true appear false, and the false to appear true.

For the day of judgment, the day of the Lord will come. Although we know not when we are given hints as to what we need to watch for. Be prepared friends, for when the Lord returns He will judge ALL persons. The separation between those who cleave to Him and those that deny Him, the sheep from the goats, the righteous from the unrighteous, the godly from the ungodly.

Likewise in the above scriptures, and in other places God has defined all of those mentioned in the previous statement. Brethren, trust in your Redeemer and your salvation, yet never be so smug as to be too self-assured.
