Heretics in the church: Individuals whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you

in heretics •  3 years ago 

The call of Jesus to participate in the banquet of the Kingdom of Heaven is a universal message to all humanity, for some this message is an announcement for salvation and eternal life; but for others this announcement is simply a source of material gain, spirituality and religion do not always go hand in hand.
This is why Judas Thaddeus, probably one of the twelve disciples of Jesus, warns us of the danger of the heretics, the teachers of the error, who instill heresies to bring division, dissension, and other works of the flesh inside the church:
"Mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance. Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt compelled to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to God's holy people. For certain individuals whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord." Jude 2-4.

These men do not have God nor do they obey any authority: "In the very same way, on the strength of their dreams these ungodly people pollute their own bodies, reject authority and heap abuse on celestial beings." Jude 8.
The Bible tells us to live alert and attentive to the present times, and not to live persecuted, because we live in difficult times, and humanity is in an intermediate state between good and evil: "Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong." 1 Corinthians 16:13.
These men cannot participate in life in common, they build walls and cut bridges: "God will judge those outside. ´Expel the wicked person from among you´" 1 Corinthians 5:13.
After the teaching on the path that must be avoided, Judas Thaddeus marks the correct path: "Keep yourselves in God's love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life" Jude 21.
