Beware of Imposters. Imposters Beware (5 of 5)
Ernest Easley Jude
May I tell you tonight that God has a special delivery just for you and it's found right here in the Word of God! God wants you reading your mail! So take your Bible and turn please to the book of Jude. We've been enjoying God's little postcards .. those 4 one-chapter books on these Sunday nights. Who can name those 4 one-chapter books in the New Testament? Philemon .. 2 John .. 3 John .. Jude! Very good! Now for several weeks we've been studying with great interest the book of Jude.

Jude warns us of a potential problem for every Bible-believing, Spirit-filled, Soul-winning church! The problem of apostasy!

But after receiving the gospel .. they rejected the gospel. And if that's not bad enough .. after receiving the gospel and then rejecting the gospel .. they ridicule the gospel. They mock the gospel .. they mock the church .. they mock the ministry! They ridicule the gospel! But their not through yet! An apostate not only receives the gospel and then rejects the gospel and then ridicules the gospel .. then they replace the gospel. So .. Jude has been describing apostates so that we can detect them among us! And don't you think for a second that First Baptist Church is immuned from apostates! The Devil would like nothing more than to slip a few rocks in this river of love! He would like nothing more than to divide and destroy this fellowship. He would like nothing more than to corrupt this fellowship with immorality! He wo ...
