Instructions Against Destruction

From the Epistle of Jude
in the New Testament of the Holy Bible:

But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; how that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit. But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And of some have compassion, making a difference: and others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and for ever. Amen
.-Jude 1:17-25***Approximately 30 years after Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was conceived of the Holy Spirit (Holy Ghost) in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and born into the Israelite tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin, Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River by Mary's relative John the Baptist. The Holy Spirit descended as a dove and lit upon Jesus, and the Lord God in heaven audibly acknowledged his Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit led Jesus into the desert wilderness. For 40 days Jesus fasted and was tempted. Afterwards, Jesus was tended to by angels, and Jesus went to the area near John the Baptist, and Jesus went to Galilee. Jesus told specific Israelite men to follow him, and Jesus journeyed with them throughout Galilee, Judea and the surrounding regions, preaching, teaching and performing miracles among the Israelites. The men, the disciples, sometimes exhibited little faith or no faith. Many Israelites in Nazareth in Galilee, the hometown of Joseph and Mary and the place wherein Jesus had lived with them, expressed no faith. Jesus saw others throughout the regions who physically expressed their faith, including a woman who had been steadily bleeding for 12 years, and the friends of a paralyzed man. Jesus performed a healing miracle on behalf of a centurion who had great faith, and a Gentile, a person not born into the Israelite tribes, who had great faith. Sometime after Jesus was betrayed, arrestedcrucified, buried in a tomb, resurrected, seen by many people, and returned to heaven, the divinely inspired writer of the Epistle of Jude in the Holy Bible made mention of the most holy faith of people sanctified by the Lord God in heaven and kept by his Son Jesus the Christ.-Genesis 11:26-35:29, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26, Jude
