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
International Standard Version
Warning about False Teachers
3 Dear friends, although I was eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I found it necessary to write to you and urge you to continue your vigorous defense of the faith that was passed down to the saints once and for all. 4 For some people have slipped in among you unnoticed. They were written about long ago as being deserving of this condemnation because they are ungodly. They turn the grace of our God into uncontrollable lust and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus the Messiah.[a]
