Cross-Testament Connections

Jude draws on God’s past judgments to warn and to assure:

• Certain judgment: Israel, the angels, Sodom, Cain, Balaam, and Korah prove God judges the ungodly (Jude 5-11; Numbers 14; 16; 22; Genesis 19).
• The Lord comes in judgment: Enoch’s prophecy points to Christ’s coming to judge all (Jude 14-15; Genesis 5:24; Daniel 7:10).
• The faith once delivered: The fixed gospel deposit fulfills God’s unchanging revealed truth (Jude 3; Deuteronomy 4:2; Galatians 1:8-9).
• God keeps His own: The keeping God fulfills His promise to preserve His people (Jude 24; Psalm 121; John 10:28-29).
