Jude  1 vs 24 and 25

24 Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling or falling into sin, and to present you unblemished (blameless and faultless) in the presence of His glory with triumphant joy and unspeakable delight, 25 to the only God our Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, dominion and power, before all time and now and forever.

Jude was believed to have been one of the four brothers of Jesus mentioned in the Bible.

He may have known a thing or two about his brother Jesus, before He was revealed as the Messiah and afterwards.

While His family had some trouble accepting His claims at first, it seems there was a radical change of heart afterwards.

Jude acknowledges that it is God, through Jesus, who is able to keep us from stumbling and falling into sin. No one else at all, only Jesus.

The devil likes to bring condemnation and remind us of our wrong doings.

Jesus, in dying the death that He did and rising again, is now able to wash away our sins because of His shed blood.

Not only that, He can present us to God without blemish in the presence of God’s glory.

That’s massively significant. Generally, when God’s glory showed up, people died because sin could not coexist in its awesome presence.

But Jesus has changed that.

Not only that, it brings him extreme joy and a delight so intense and immense that Jesus is either for the moment lost for words, or just can’t stop talking … about you – you who He is presenting faultless before God the Father.

Our part is really simple: just believe, repent of sin, and recognise that He is God, all powerful and worthy of our praise.

If you’ve stumbled and fallen, God is ready to catch you and pick you up again. His heart is to restore and strengthen you.
