Jude 1-2
Open your bibles to the book of Jude. Jude is pretty easy to find. Get to the last book--Revelation, go left one book, and there will be Jude. In most bibles, the whole book of Jude is just one page making it more of a postcard than a letter. You might be tempted to look at that and say to yourself 'that's it?'

William Booth's warning echoes one made by the Apostle Paul some 2,000 years earlier when he wrote to a young pastor named Timothy.
- For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
(2 Timothy 4:3-4)
Unfortunately, what the Apostle Paul prophesied 2,000 years ago and William Booth predicted 100 years ago, is present here in America right now. Thousands and thousands of churches all over ...
