Jude

Verses 5-7, God's Judgment of Apostates

1.  The Jude 5

Read the account in Numbers 13-14.

What does Hebrews 3:7-19 tell us?

2.  The   Jude 6-7

What do you think this is referring to?

Read the following verses to see what light they shed on this.

Genesis 6:1-4~

Isaiah 14:12-17~

Ezekiel 28:12-19~

Matthew 22:30~

1 Peter 2:3-5~

2 Peter 3:18-20~

What spirits did Jesus apparently preach to following His death on the

cross?

3.  The   Jude 7

Read the story of Sodom & Gomorrah in Gen 18:16-19:26.

Why were they judged?

If we learn anything from Jude 5-7, it is that God hates sin & deals

seriously with it.  If someone refuses to believe that God deals

harshly with sin, what could you tell them about how He dealt with

various people in the following verses?

Genesis 6-7~

Exodus 7-14~

Exodus 32~

Numbers 14~

Jeremiah 44:2-6~

Acts 5:1-11~

2 Thessalonians 1:7-10~

If God dealt so severely with apostasy in the past, why would He deal

more severely with it now (Hebrews 10:29-31)?

Do you need to be exhorted or to be exhorting?  (Hebrews 3:12-13)?
