Jude
7 In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.
Do we've got immorality and perversion. Rape and blow jobs...
18 They said to you, "In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires." 19 These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.
Hrs ranting about natural instincts and we all know homosexuality isn't natural. Clearly he's talking about stuff like heterosexuality.
What's hilarious about stuff like this is it's a primitive internet rant. There is no time on earth a believer could read it and say that right now isn't the time of "scoffers."
I assume Tampa disagree because kjv is the only correct bible
Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after
strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. -Jude 7
Jim (did you used to be Tyson?), Jude's epistle is written to the church age (which began @ Pentecost). Jude was written within 3-4 decades of the death, burial, resurrection, and ascension of Christ. The early church already had Gnostic doctrines creeping in and other false prophets promoting antinomianism. While Paul's epistles are profitable to all saints, he wrote to specific churches (Ephesus, Corinth, Philippi, Thessalonica, etc.) and specific disciples like Titus and Timothy, Jude's writing is a general epistle to ALL believers to contend for the faith.
I do believe the "timer" started at Pentecost, but I believe the last remaining prophecy was that of the restored Fig Tree (May 14, 1948). So until then, there was still a final prophecy to be fulfilled until the return of the Son of Man. Jesus Christ could certainly tarry, but prophetically speaking nothing else needs to take place for HIM to return for the saints.
