4 因為有人已經混進你們中間，他們就是早被判定受刑的不敬虔的人。這些人把我們　神的恩典當作放縱情慾的藉口，並且否認獨一的主宰我們的主耶穌基督。

有一種說法,認為人既然蒙了神的恩典得救了,就有犯罪的自由,因為有恩典的神會赦免他們的罪(攻擊基督教的人常常拿這個觀點來摸黑基督徒). 猶大書指出,將神的恩典當作放縱情慾的藉口,必然難逃神的刑罰.

22 有些人心裡疑惑，你們要憐憫他們；

23 有些人你們要拯救，把他們從火中搶救出來；又有些人你們要戰戰兢兢地憐憫他們，連染上情慾污漬的衣服也應當憎惡。

猶大書
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

第一章

問安
1 耶穌基督的僕人，雅各的兄弟猶大，寫信給那些被召的人，就是在父　神里蒙愛，並且為了耶穌基督而蒙保守的人。
2 願憐憫、平安、慈愛多多加給你們。

要竭力維護信仰
3 親愛的，我曾經迫切地想寫信給你們，論到我們共享的救恩；現在我更覺得必須寫信勸勉你們，要竭力維護從前一次就全交給了聖徒的信仰，
4 因為有人已經混進你們中間，他們就是早被判定受刑的不敬虔的人。這些人把我們　神的恩典當作放縱情慾的藉口，並且否認獨一的主宰我們的主耶穌基督。

列舉史實作鑑戒
5 雖然這一切事情你們都早已知道，我仍然要提醒你們：從前主從埃及地把人民救出來，跟着就把那些不信的人除滅了。
6 還有，那不守本位擅離自己居所的天使，主用永遠的鎖鏈把他們拘留在黑暗裡，直到那大日子的審判。
7 又像所多瑪、蛾摩拉和周圍城市的人，與他們一樣的淫亂，隨從反常的情慾，以致遭受永火的刑罰，成了後世的鑑戒。
8 雖然是這樣，這些醉生夢死的人還是照樣玷污身體，藐視主權，毀謗尊榮。
9 天使長米迦勒為了摩西的屍體與魔鬼爭論的時候，還不敢用毀謗的話定他的罪，只說：“主責備你！”
10 但這些人毀謗他們所不知道的，他們只知道按本性所能領悟的事，好像沒有理性的禽獸，就因這些事敗壞了自己。
11 他們有禍了，因為他們走上了該隱的道路，又為了財利闖進巴蘭的歧途，並且在可拉的背叛中滅亡了。
12 這些人膽敢與你們同席，他們只顧餵飽自己，是你們愛筵中的暗礁；是無雨的浮雲，隨風飄蕩；是秋天不結果子的樹，連根拔起，死而又死；
13 是海中的狂浪，濺起了自己可恥的泡沫；是流蕩的星，有漆黑的幽暗永遠為他們存留。
14 亞當的第七世孫以諾，也曾經預言這些人說：“看，主必同他的千萬聖者降臨，
15 要審判眾人，又要定所有不敬虔的人的罪，因為他們妄行各樣不敬虔的事，並且說了種種剛愎的話頂撞　神。”
16 這些人常發牢騷，怨天尤人，順着自己的私慾行事，口說誇張的話，為了利益就不惜阿諛奉承。

要在至聖的信仰上建立自己
17 但你們呢，親愛的，你們要記住我們主耶穌基督的使徒從前所說的話。
18 他們曾經對你們說：“末世必有好譏笑人的人，隨着自己不敬虔的私慾行事。”
19 這些人分黨結派，是屬血氣的，沒有聖靈。
20 但你們呢，親愛的，你們要在至聖的信仰上建立自己，在聖靈里禱告，
21 要保守自己在　神的愛中，仰望我們主耶穌基督的憐憫，直到永生。
22 有些人心裡疑惑，你們要憐憫他們；
23 有些人你們要拯救，把他們從火中搶救出來；又有些人你們要戰戰兢兢地憐憫他們，連染上情慾污漬的衣服也應當憎惡。

頌讚的禱告
24 願榮耀、威嚴、能力、權柄，借着我們的主耶穌基督，從萬世以前，及現在，直到永永遠遠，歸給獨一的　神我們的救主。他能保守你們不至跌倒，使你們毫無瑕疵，欣然站在他榮光之前。阿們。

1 Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James, To those who have been called, who are loved by God the Father and kept by Jesus Christ:
2 Mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance.
3 Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt I had to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints.
4 For certain men whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are godless men, who change the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.
5 Though you already know all this, I want to remind you that the Lord delivered his people out of Egypt, but later destroyed those who did not believe.
6 And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their own home--these he has kept in darkness, bound with everlasting chains for judgment on the great Day.
7 In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.
8 In the very same way, these dreamers pollute their own bodies, reject authority and slander celestial beings.
9 But even the archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses, did not dare to bring a slanderous accusation against him, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!"
10 Yet these men speak abusively against whatever they do not understand; and what things they do understand by instinct, like unreasoning animals--these are the very things that destroy them.
11 Woe to them! They have taken the way of Cain; they have rushed for profit into Balaam's error; they have been destroyed in Korah's rebellion.
12 These men are blemishes at your love feasts, eating with you without the slightest qualm--shepherds who feed only themselves. They are clouds without rain, blown along by the wind; autumn trees, without fruit and uprooted--twice dead.
13 They are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their shame; wandering stars, for whom blackest darkness has been reserved forever.
14 Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men: "See, the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones
15 to judge everyone, and to convict all the ungodly of all the ungodly acts they have done in the ungodly way, and of all the harsh words ungodly sinners have spoken against him."
16 These men are grumblers and faultfinders; they follow their own evil desires; they boast about themselves and flatter others for their own advantage.
17 But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold.
18 They said to you, "In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires."
19 These are the men who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.
20 But you, dear friends, build yourselves up in your most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit.
21 Keep yourselves in God's love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.
22 Be merciful to those who doubt;
23 snatch others from the fire and save them; to others show mercy, mixed with fear--hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh.
24 To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy--
25 to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.
