Jude said he “gave all diligence” in writing his letter, an assurance to his readers that he gave careful thought to what he should write. Also in verse 3, Jude tells us he was writing about the “common salvation,” suggesting that all Christians have certain beliefs in common, and it is our responsibility to discuss these and teach them to other Christians. “Earnestly contend for the faith,” he said.

Sunday School Lesson
Have you ever considered the requests you have made in prayer? You probably recall requests that were made selfishly, and with no regard to God’s will for your life or the one for whom you prayed. There have been petitions I made in which I worked out everything and presented it to God.
