Abusive Acts Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Nov 2, 2023

Here we have two pointed statements in this verse, one referring to the reviles at dignities, the other to the defilers of the flesh. Brute beasts can be smart but they obviously do not have spiritual knowledge. Their reasoning was no more advanced than that of animals' instincts.

Jude 1:10 - Abusive Acts Jude 1:10: “But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.” KNOW NOT & KNOW The word Know means to gain a firm mental grasp of something or to become acquainted with ...read more
