Jude 17-25
Matthew 17:15-19
When scripture is talking about false teachers, it is not only talking about “cobras” it its talking about people who walk, and talk like Christians.
Scripture doesn’t only talk about good theology, but good actions.
Good orthodoxy (right teaching) ought to lead to good orthopraxy (right practice).
While good theology does not make us immune to sin, it is still deeply important.
Jude implores people to wait for the second coming, when God will enact justice on the false teachers. This period of waiting should lead us to trust God.
Good orthodoxy ought to lead to good worship.
