Jude 2-4
Evangelical Heritage Version
2 Mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.
Ungodly Teachers Who Slipped In Secretly
3 Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you concerning the salvation we share, I felt it was necessary for me to write, to urge you to continue to contend for the faith that was delivered to the saints once and for all. 4 For certain individuals slipped in secretly, about whom it was written some time ago that they are condemned. They are ungodly people who turn the grace of our God into a license for sin and deny our only Master[a] and Lord, Jesus Christ.
