17 But you must remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ.18 They said to you, In the last time there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions.19 It is these who cause divisions, worldly people, devoid of the Spirit.20 But you, beloved, build yourselves up in your most holy faith; pray in the Holy Spirit;21 keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life.
Perhaps there have been many times in history that people have felt that the book of Jude was written for "times such as this", but it just seems like this book was written for today! We are called to pray in the Holy Spirt, to keep ourselves in the love of God, and to wait on the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ. There is so much to be sad about in the world today, there is much division, sin, and following of ungodly passions. We are called to Pray, Love, and wait...these are good things to do, whether it is or isn't "the last time".
