Amen.Watch at: https://vimeo.com/988036170

17But you mustremember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ.18They[a]said to you,In the last time there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions.19It is these who cause divisions, worldly people,devoid of the Spirit.20But you, beloved,building yourselves up in your most holy faith andpraying in the Holy Spirit,21keep yourselves in the love of God,waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life.22And have mercy on those who doubt;23save others bysnatching them out ofthe fire; to others show mercywith fear, hating eventhe garment[b]stained by the flesh.Watch at: https://vimeo.com/983907732?share=copy

14It was also about these that Enoch,the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying,Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of his holy ones,15to execute judgment on all and to convict all the ungodly of all their deeds of ungodliness that they havecommitted in such an ungodly way, and of allthe harsh things that ungodly sinners have spoken against him.16These are grumblers, malcontents,following their own sinful desires;they are loud-mouthed boasters,showing favoritism to gain advantage.Watch at: https://vimeo.com/980002022?share=copy

Dr.Chris Martin - 1Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.2For by it the people of old received their commendation.3By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.Watch at: https://vimeo.com/972348801?share=copy

8Yet in like manner these people also, relying on their dreams, defile the flesh, reject authority, andblaspheme the glorious ones.9But whenthe archangelMichael, contending with the devil, was disputingabout the body of Moses, he did not presume to pronounce a blasphemous judgment, but said,The Lord rebuke you.10But these people blaspheme all that they do not understand, and they are destroyed by all that they, like unreasoning animals, understand instinctively.11Woe to them! For they walked inthe way of Cain and abandoned themselves for the sake of gainto Balaam's error andperished in Korah's rebellion.12These are hidden reefs[a]at your love feasts, as they feast with you without fear,shepherds feeding themselves;waterless clouds,swept along by winds; fruitless trees in late autumn, twice dead,uprooted;13wild waves of the sea, casting up the foam oftheir own shame;wandering stars,for whom the gloom of utter darkness has been reserved forever.Watch at: https://vimeo.com/966071303?share=copy

5Now I wantto remind you, although you once fully knew it, thatJesus, who saved[a]a people out of the land of Egypt,afterward destroyed those who did not believe.6Andthe angels who did not stay within their own position of authority, but left their proper dwelling, he has kept in eternal chains under gloomy darkness until the judgment of the great day7just asSodom and Gomorrah andthe surrounding cities, which likewise indulged in sexual immorality andpursued unnatural desire,[b]serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire.Watch at: https://vimeo.com/959692899?share=copy
