Jude’s Purpose in Writing
3 Dear friends, although I was eager to write you about the salvation we share,(A) I found it necessary to write, appealing to you to contend for the faith(B) that was delivered(C) to the saints once for all. 4 For some people, who were designated for this judgment long ago,[a](D) have come in by stealth;(E) they are ungodly,(F) turning the grace of our God into sensuality and denying(G) Jesus Christ, our only Master and Lord.

Jude 3-4
New American Standard Bible
3 (A)Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our (B)common salvation, I felt the necessity to write to you appealing that you (C)contend earnestly for (D)the faith that was once for all time (E)handed down to (F)the [a]saints. 4 For certain people have (G)crept in unnoticed, those who were long beforehand [b](H)marked out for this condemnation, ungodly persons who turn (I)the grace of our God into (J)indecent behavior and (K)deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.
