The false doctrine of incipient Gnostic antinomianism weaseled its way into the church, and Jude warns against subversion of the truth and exhorts to “contend earnestly for the faith.” Grant C. Richison divides the Book of Jude into six major parts: • Salutation and Address-Assurance • Occasion and Purpose—Apostasy • Apostasy Exposed • Apostolic Teaching Prevents Apostasy • Guard Fellowship with God by Honoring His Truth • Consolation Against Apostasy
