Bless you for that. Now I want you to take your Bibles please and turn please to the book of Jude, next to the last book in the Bible. Today is the last message in our book in Jude, and actually I have enjoyed this. And I have, first time I've ever really preached through the book of Jude and it has been a great strength to my own heart. Now we're going to read together verses 24 and 25.
