It is a good saying, for this nature points to the fact that we are made in God’s image. That is why the Spirit says that farmers, builders, and clothed-makers are blessed. Those who do these things repeat what God did at the dawn of the world. In the beginning, God constructed the world in 7 days, planted a garden for His creation’s enjoyment, and clothed humanity when they needed it, due to sin. Indeed, God’s caring heart is even more pronounced than that, for He presented the animals to the man for him to name and even gave him a suitable partner, all because the man was too lonely. And if we are the ones God has chosen to bear his image, we should not only do these things but should even allow them to happen. That is what this saying means in the Christian perspective.
What about people who lost all faith because of abuse and constant suffering? Do you dare to criticise them too? And how dare you to criticise when even Jesus said do not judge and you won’t be judged?
This, is one of the most convicting, most irrefutable books of the bible.. now I know what matters, ABOVE ALL ELSE- Loving and living for Jesus, obedience. This was a punch in the face that I'm thankful for. Been feeling off lately. God bless everyone and thanks again, Bible project. 👍🏼
Bible Project, thank you from the bottom my heart & Soul for making learning the Bible fun & entertaining. I am almost done watching every video you've made from Genesis to Revelations and I am now reading the whole Bible :) God used Bible Project to lure me to Him :) you guys/gals at BP are a blessing to me :)
For such a small book in terms of length, the book of Jude is really loaded with lots of pearls to reflect on. I hope you do a video on praying in the spirit and speaking in tongues
You speak in tongues every day. 8 primary languages make up English. God is a God of action. .Psalm 3:3 (KJV) But thou, O LORD, [art] a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head. Glory- Outline of Biblical Usage: glory, honour, glorious, abundance abundance, riches honour, splendour, glory Splendour/ Latin for SHINE BRIGHT. Daniel 12:3 (KJV) And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
"How you live is the most reliable indicator of what you actually believe." Not what you feel, not what you think, not what you say that matter. It's what you do. Gin
Kenneth Copeland and his " tube of demons " reference is deemed good by the evil angel, so says the church,, so yea..bending in a path of persuasion i Reckon.
Nice... try to impress others with your works so that they will think you have faith. This is the height of arrogance. Faith comes by hearing God speak in a two-way conversation (prayer). It's not our faith that counts, it's God's own faith he personally establishes in us.
@@Zulonix my bet is what He said, "Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’" He said "DOes" the will of His Father. Now I am not an English native speaker, but I am pretty sure "DOes" is a present continuous form of do, which means work.
This was very well done. We had a bible study today going through Jude, and we had quite a confusing time making sense of these references to other stories. This helps a lot.
There is great debate in church's about this book, it hits hard to those that won't stop their addiction to porn and those who live in fornication with a partner. These two sins dominate the church and the main argument of those who engage in them is that (Jesus blood covers my sin and by you saying I need to stop is saying my sin is greater then his blood, they say I am once saved always saved, and I confess I believe in Jesus and that's all I need.) This book shows them clear as day that this view is a perverted view of God's Grace and it will continue to cause conviction lest their hearts become hard. I pray their eyes are opened.
Jonathan Cross Blood is greater than the sin, but we got give that sin to Jesus and let him keep it by repenting & confessing to God so he can wash it in his blood.
Hunter Cowart But if you make a practice of sinning, then you have deceived yourself and the truth was never in you. You may have spoken words from your mouth but the truth never took hold.
Hunter Cowart You just said some people don't want to change. God wants to see some effort compared to no effort. With the David example he did some bad stuff, but eventually repented. " Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: “The Lord knows those who are his,”and, “Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness.” " 2 Timothy 2:19 Christians shouldn't justify any sin that they know of and repetent to God right away. If I had a drinking problem and got drunk, but later repented of it compared to got drunk a died in an accident. We should do the first and not the second. God wants us to dominate sin with his help. We're not perfect, but God will give us time to overcome our personal sins that we may struggle with because we should be growing spirtually throughout our lives by spending time with & letting the Holy Spirit tell us what to do. God hates sin and we should love what God loves and hate what God hates. romans 8:2 " because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death " romans 8:14 " For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace "
Jonathan, when "christians" say things like "once saved always saved is a heresy or perverted view of God's grace" it absolutely astonishes me. First of all, I don't know ANYONE that believe once they are saved, they're free to sin as much as they please. That is ridiculous. If you believe that once the Son justifies you, and you are no longer held guilty in God's court, and then suddenly you can un-justify yourself due to sin, then you are sadly mistaken my friend. Please read John 10:29. If you believe sin can unwash a sinner, you are the one, in fact, perverting God's grace. Are you really going to stand before God and tell him He couldn't save to the uttermost? Are you really going to stand before God and tell Him He couldn't keep all His sheep? Do you know what Double Jeopardy means? It means one cannot be tried for the same crime twice, and if you believe you can lose your salvation, than you believe in double jeopardy. That doesn't fly in human court, you really think it flies in God's perfect court? If you believe that, then God can justify a man, declare him not guilty, than re-charge him/find him guilty for crimes/sins he was previously acquitted from. That is NOT justice. That is not the God of the Bible. How much sense does that make? Now, out of love, I'm going to exhort you to be more careful how you address this issue. I guarantee you that ETERNAL means ETERNAL. The Son gives ETERNAL life, not conditional life. If you believe you can lose salvation, you earned it to begin with, and you are directly against Ephesians 2:8-9. If I get to Heaven one day, and learn I didn't sin away my salvation, well, I think I might be able to boast a little. But clearly, there will be no boasting in Heaven. If you believe you can maintain your salvation by not sinning it away, then my friend, you are working for your salvation and aligning yourself with occult beliefs. Cults believe they maintain their salvation, not Christians. If I've misunderstood you, then I apologize and deeply regret my post. God Bless, and YES, I pray eyes are opened indeed.
Hypernikao Productions Hey I read your entire post, and it has really good observations from the word. Thanks for the response. You misunderstood me a little, I don't believe in works or earning salvation. I read the Bible about once every 2 days for a few chapters or a book (Mostly New testament but recently im into the old testament study) It's clear to me we are made right only by the Blood of Christ and you cannot boast because you didn't do anything towards the saving process. But the other thing that has become more and more clear to me is that God honors our choices. We could talk about the Armani vs Calvin all day and get nowhere so to be simple about what I get from the scriptures and personal conviction from the Holy Spirit is that, on the day of Judgement there will be a vast many who are suprised when Jesus says he never knew them, you who practice sin. In short I believe those people who he never knew are the ones who think they are saved and our actually not, they appear to be because they associate with a church and with other Christians, but they are still lost. He says I "never" knew you so they surrounded themselves with Christ but never let him in. In Jude when he says some are in the church who say we can sin and still be consider a Christ follower, I believe these are the modern day apostates who have sex outside of marriage, watch porn, hold unforgivness inside etc. And when you address them about it (cause I have in a nice way, all I did was point it out and asked how come they still do it in a soft voice and out of concern) they say it's OK I'm saved, I'm not perfect man, I can't leave her, or I want what I want porn makes me happy, etc. The post was to point out how in churches today in America this is being accepted by Pastors and Elders as a genuine doctrine. And on judgement they who are living in these sins believing they have something they don't will be cast into Hell forever and it concerns me.
This is the first time I heard these references to the extra writings Jude would be referring to; even after 3 years of bible school in the 1980s.awesome job...Thank you!
Good Morning! Thank you for diligently doing these videos. They are such a learning tool. I wanted to share. In 2015 while riding in a car I heard the Lord say Jude in my right ear. I didn't know about the book of Jude. When I got home, I walked into the house and grabbed the Bible and immediately found Jude. Validation it was a word from the Lord. I then saw all of the corruption in my church and left. Tried several churches after. To this day, I have not found a church to attend. I truly believe we are in the age of Jude, pre-revelations. Turn back to God and He will heal our land is the message I received that day! Thanks again for your hard work creating these videos. ❤🤍💙
"for Christians, how you live is the most reliable indicator of what you believe." Thank you for your work on developing explanation for the book of Jude (Judah).
Having a surreal moment while listening to this great piece of Bible audio . For whatever reason I have been under the process of change via the Helper that god has sent to me and the strongest feeling compels me to tell as many as I can because I can not bare the thought of an alternate reality where my heart was any other way . Thankyou for this video and God bless you
It would be really cool if you guys did an episode on the book of Enoch and all the other books that were removed from the bible. I would like to learn the history of them and what they are trying to teach me about Jesus. I also really love your work by the way!!!
The “Canon” you might mean didn’t exist until 2nd or you may mean the one from the 5th century hundreds of years after Jesus’ birth. Yes, Jesus himself quoted the book of Enoch and said to those who did not know it, “You are mistaken because you do not know the Scriptures.” That’s in Matthew we can all agree if Jesus said it’s the scriptures it’s the scriptures, unlike letters to early churches where even the writer will often explain these are their opinions and not a message form the Lord. One example being when Paul says “he feels…” it was his instruction not as a prophet speaking the words of God, but as a church leader addressing current and localized issues with, in that case, what “he feels” or “ To the rest I say this, I, not the Lord: if…” Yes, the book of Enoch was hidden away with the dead sea scrolls for over 2000 years, it’s a book about demons (The great commission and Mark 16 makes a pretty clear that Christians are supposed to be dealing with those) and the end of time, why on earth would people suddenly be waking up, post World War II, that it’s meant to be scripture too? God’s timing! There are not contradictions that I’ve seen in that book to scripture, but I have seen contradictions in that book with what churches try to push that never was in scripture.
This book is a eye opener as I have read The Book of Enoch praise the Lord and thank you Jesus Christ for the wisdom that you have imparted into me amen
God Bless Bible Project, i am a. Teacher of the word of God in my church. Love to use skits, dramas & videos to teach biblical lessons. And you offer all respurces free! Your videos can be used in children's class - through - the adult classes. May all the Glory & Honor go to our Savior Jesus Christ. Thank you for your work & ministry! 🙏 Sis. in the Lord, Nayda R.
This feels like my best video yet and I have watched every Bible video except Revelations(which I would next by God's grace). God bless you abundantly BibleProject
I saw this in my dream a few days ago. JUDE. So decided to go in depth on this Book in The Bible. It reflected on my frustrations of a World riddled with corrupt supposed pastors of God. And the punishment that awaits them and a World of sinful lust. And also my anticipation of his mighty return. Thank you. Beautifully and precisely explained.
That’s crazy because I just got this book in my dream today, “The Book of Judah”. For some reason I never knew it existed. But it’s been a warning for myself, where I tend to follow the convenient belief that I’m automatically forgiven because I have faith in Jesus. It seems I must’ve misinterpreted the bible somewhere along the way. But the message in this book couldn’t have come to me at a better time.
I just came to the comments to say thank you for your explanation of Jude. After reading through Jude this morning, I was like "what did I just read?" Lol. But now, I have a much better understanding 🧡
Thank you The Bible Project for your work. They have been an immense help in making me understand the bigger picture with much needed details. God bless your work
Blessings in the name of Jesus, a great work you are doing in this channel, I hope you can continue this art-work like you are doing now, soy de México y me encantan sus publicaciones son en verdad una bendición
ISAIAH 65 - JUDE “I have stretched out My hands all day long to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, according to their own thoughts.” (Isaiah 65:2) WORDS BY: JESUS "One of the major things that people lack is fear. People fear the wrong things in life instead of the fear that matters. Instead of fearing God, they fear the things of the natural - what they are going to eat, what tomorrow brings, what jobs they want and what life they want to live. The list goes on. To have the true fear of God does not mean living in fear but respect and honour. This comes down to how much you place a value on My words. Do you treat them lightly or as the weight of the universe? For I tell you if you value each word and where it came from, if you truly grasped this, you would be very hesitant doing anything outside My will and if you do so, it would be with utmost conviction. This is what it means to have the fear of God, knowing that one word from Him is enough to create or destroy all creation. Jude warns of such people who do not fear God and walk in a way that is not good according to their own thoughts and ungodly lusts. They will be judged as mockers of My kingdom who treated My words as causal as a game. However, the faithful will be rewarded and increased spiritually. The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom because it is the first step of walking in honour. And when you honour who I am and the righteousness I stand for, you will be renewed day by day into My image as Enoch was. The renewal of the mind is very important because the thought life can be the greatest snare to humanity if left unchallenged. Bind yourself with the fruit of love and holiness that you may have a walk worthy of Me fully pleasing Me, being fruitful in every good work. For as long as you stick close to Me, then life will follow you and you will be ready for the end time warfare."
BibleProject so yeah only problem about this is that you skipped over VERSES 22-23 22 And on some have compassion, making a distinction; 23 But others save with fear pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh. -Jude 22-23 NKJV
2 Peter 2:15-22 (KJV) 15 Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam [the son] of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; 16 But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet. 17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. 18 For when they speak great swelling [words] of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, [through much] wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. 19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. 20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known [it], to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. 22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog [is] turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. ...the MESSENGERS who leave their coarse...ARE MEN LIKE BALAAM. The STARS. Daniel 12:3 (KJV) And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. BALAAM strayed from coarse, becoming a prolific cautionary tale. And so that shinning head of gold, Nebuchadnezzar, shined his light on Who has dominion in the affairs of men, and the nations, and surprise, surprise, it’s not who you’d think based on these traditions of men. Daniel 4:1-3 (KJV) 1 Nebuchadnezzar the king, unto all people, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth; Peace be multiplied unto you. 2 I thought it good to shew the signs and wonders that the high God hath wrought toward me. 3 How great [are] his signs! and how mighty [are] his wonders! his kingdom [is] an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion [is] from generation to generation. Daniel 4:17 (KJV) This matter [is] by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.
Wow! What a informative video. The animation and the narration really help us open the pages of the Bible. I did not know that the Book of Jude contains excerpts from early Jewish literature. Praise the Lord who wants His people to remain obedient to Him through holy living. This was so much more than history lesson. Thank you for encouraging all of the brothers and sisters out there.
Shalom thank you so much for recognising the importance of the Accient books ,I personally have read some of them and it's like they feel in the missing pieces of the puzzles in the old Testament and I decided to start reading the old Testament from the beginning again because Christ and other Apostles quote from them alot and it's important to know the story behind their quotations. Shalom Aleichem to you all children of Yahweh.
Jude may be the shortest chapter in the book but it is one the most important chapters in the Bible. Thanks for the review brother reading the Bible is hard to understand but with your videos it makes it so much easier.
Hi sister 👋 shalom...May I asked what inspired you to watch this video? Im going to defend its authenticity this Sunday against a group of leading Muslim apologists
And yet the “new covenant” is taught a little different. Jeremiah 31:33-34 (KJV) 33 But this [shall be] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. 34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. Why is the Woman of Rev 12 wearing the seal of 12 Stars? Because it’s Torah, and applied on earth among men, IS, Deuteronomy 11:21 (KJV) That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.
Wayward stars are what exactly. I notice this depiction mentions all indicators of the false prophet, but the referral to wayward stars. What is a Star? Daniel 12:3 (KJV) And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
A good teacher has a way of making complex things very simple..like Derek Prince. You have explained this book very well. I watched it sevetal times. Took notes and plan on reading the book of Jude again with the increased understanding. Thank You for making this video. I can't wait to see the rest of them.
awesome videos. sometimes I like to imagine how it must've been like for Jesus's brothers when Jesus was crucified. I mean that was hard for a family to go through.
I’m so blessed today, thanks for this work. My faith literally grew from understanding why Judah wrote in this context. Doubt needs to be snuffed out, if anyone believes the Bible has error they do not have enough understanding. It’s difficult to translate the full setting of culture from each book of the Bible. Thank you Lord for Honest Shepards.
Honest shepherds passing “wine” to the laity. Weird that the wormwood sells the Best. Jeremiah 23:14 (KJV) I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah. Jeremiah 23:15 (KJV) Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets; Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall: for from the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone forth into all the land. And from there, it only telescopes. Ask the ancients , after all, Rev 12 states the woman is sealed with 12 stars. Daniel 12:3 (KJV) And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
Sorry, forgot, what is a Nicolation? Compound Greek word meaning power over laity. Hebrews didn’t have pulpits and “taught down” theology, church and circus being from same root word.
Could you do a video about the creation of the modern Bible and how the different books and texts were collated into becoming the Bible and why? Would be very interesting
I haven't read much on it .. but this is what I know. By around 100-200 ad, there were a lot of scrolls circulating that claimed to be inspired by God. Church leaders started recognizing this is a problem and decided to make lists of scrolls which were safe to read. After a while most of them agreed on the books that we have now have as the Bible cannon. In choosing a book to be part of the cannon it had to meet certain requirements like 1. Be written by one who was agreed to be a true prophet of God, which was proven by their miracles. 2. Be written by eye witnesses. That's why the book of Judas was discarded, because it was written about 200 years after the death of Judas. 3. Have no historical or factual errors. There is a whole lot more involved but I hope this has helped even a little bit.
Enoch is crucial to true ‘understanding’ and was removed from the canonical scriptures, because it exposes the truth of history....so people would believe the lies of Satan. ENOCH is scriptural,
I downloaded an app of the boom of Enoch. Seriously it explains so much I don’t know why it was taken out. It even talks about Jesus. It explains so much about the spiritual realm, it’s good to read it.
The Book of Enoch is a false book that is full of contradictions. The parts of Enoch that are consistent are already in the canon Bible. Take it from someone who has read parts of these so-called lost books just stick to the 66 Canon. The things that you will read are so bad you will not even be able to finish these books without laughter and/or anger. Fear the LORD and keep the Commandments.
PhiladelphiYAH Redeem for the Afroasiatik Diaspora while i agree if it were meant to be canon it would, i do think it’s important christians to look into as they grow in their faith, in order to better understand genesis 6 and the reasoning for the flood. it also helps explain where ancient cultures get their “gods” from
Nowadays I read a book in bible and check my understanding with your videos. And I have to say that I always get to learn new things and they help me to look at things in different perspective. Thanks.
A great video and helps to understand the book as it was written and concludes to how we should live very well. So relevant today. I pray teaching in the church was sometimes this well delivered.
lucky are y'all that got to see that Revelation Livestream. I was halfway done when they cut off the broadcast! +The Bible Project please post that stream again!
I hope you never stop teaching us the word of the Lord. You do such a wonderful job. You sound humble for one thing. you sound professional but you don't sound overly technical and everything is simple but done in such a significant and professional way. before I read the books of the Bible I always go to an overview that you have about the book. So I'm able to understand it before I even read it. Actually I feel like I got it all from you before I even read it LOL! Thank you so much for the effort and hard work that you put in all of what you do. I can see that you have your whole heart in it. May God continue to bless you for all you do for all of us and for the Lord. God bless you always 💝 Merry Christmas 💝🎀💝
To him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy- to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen. Jude 1:24-25
It is very nice presentation. In the verse 5, it says "Jesus... saved a people out of the land of Egypt" which shows the Apostolic understanding of Jesus Christ. Book of Jude is a great antidote for hypergrace teaching.
Your videos never fail to amaze me! Great job again guys! I do have one question though, why didn't Jesus's brothers follow Him prior to His resurrection?
The same reason many today do not follow him after his resurrection. I realize that is a vague answer, but there really is no one universal reason why many refuse to follow Jesus. Jesus himself depicted four different kinds of minds (Luke 8:5-8); his purpose was not to enforce a statistic (i.e. it's not that only 25% will obey Jesus), but rather to show us that different factors keep the seed from taking root. In the Synoptic gospels, they sought Jesus to take him home (presumably because they thought he had lost his mind [see Mark 3:21] or that he was embarrassing their family name). Perhaps the most infamous account of their unbelief is in John 7:1-10. The text implies that his brothers wanted him to die (i.e. by going back to Judea). We read, "Not even his brothers believed in him." (7:5). Perhaps they did not believe out of resentment ("He's mother's favorite child!"), bitterness ("He's bringing reproach on our family name"), or envy (the same reason the Jewish leaders killed Jesus; see Mark 15:10). The saying is often true, "Familiarity breeds contempt." We do not see them as believers until after the resurrection as believers (Acts 1:14).
Josh McPheron I also think mostly the same reason why His own town or village dint believe in Him, if your brother told you I am God ,you are probably going to have a hard time believing him than a stranger who did not know anything about your brother. Hope that also helped
It is fascinating how other stories of the Bible of times of Moses and stuff like that is talked about in the New testament coincide with each it amazing .
I never heard of that book before the psuedopigrapha. This whole time I thought Jude received the information by revelation from a dream or vision. I didn't know he got it from these two books the Aprocrypha and the Psuedopigrapha. This has definitely been insightful.
It is still revelation…Jude is simply using those previous works with the understanding of who his church is…(early messianic Jews…who were all raised on that literature) to help them understand the revelation from Christ…and “that book” the psuedepigrapha is what it was named after Jude’s time…we know it as that but for them back then it was simply faith based literature…no different from us reading a book by John Piper or another person of the faith
It's possible Jude is referencing Zechariah 3 when speaking about the "body" of Moses and Satan. We want to think Jude is referring the physical dead body of Moses when what he is talking about is the "people" of Moses(Old Covenant Israel) as a body in the same way the "people" of Christ are called the "Body" of Christ.
This is the second video where you've said a passage is referring to 1 Enoch angel shenanigans, but after reading them, I interpreted it as referring to fallen angels, i.e. demons/devils/angelic followers of Satan. Just a thought
Right people want their private interpretation apart from the inspired word of God and end up rejecting truly inspired text but all is needed is to seek the truth and would find they really don't contradict God's word just our own fallen carnal understanding that simply needs to be transformed by the renewing of our mind by the truth of God in the heart and his Spirit. No doubt Enoch was and is a holy prophet inspired by God as scripture testifies. God Bless
The Book of Enoch is flawed with many contradictions and if you had already read the regular Bible you would have realized this. Put that piece of garbage down and stick to the 66 books to get better understanding. Study to show thyself approved.
@@philadelphiyahhsmyrna0 Even though 1 Enoch is not canonical, it inspired Jude to include a passage which we cannot not find in Genesis. In the story of a Bible scholar named Michael Heiser, he encountered people who are not comfortable with strange passages of the Bible. This is why he wrote many books in order to disprove modern interpretations and commit ourselves to the Bible text. The Bible today is not a complete book. The story continues on and is written by ancient people who were inspired by God. But it is not a given as a rule book that is dropped down from the skies but as a book that tells us our physical and spiritual purpose to walk with God.
Again, so many thanks for creating these videos to help us understand the context around the Bible! I find it funny that it may take more time to watch this video than it would take to read the book of Jude itself. 😅

The fact that all of Jesus’ brothers were “doubting Thomases” until after his resurrection is the most disappointing aspect of the new testament.
Are you catholic? why is there a book of enoch? and you mentioned books that are included in catholicism..pls i wanna know..
Is it good to read apocryphal books then? And if so, how do we interpret it with the canon?
It is amazing only about the book of Enoch and his prophecy I don't think you did get what enock said it's about Chris our lord and judgment day right
@@_whatreally Mary herself needed a savior.
I love that final statement "For Christians, how you live is the most reliable indicator of what you actually believe". Thank you for this message
Beautiful. Awesome. So true. I thank the LORD for is his and grace and mercy on my life.
Amen
That part! 😊
❤
It is a good saying, for this nature points to the fact that we are made in God’s image. That is why the Spirit says that farmers, builders, and clothed-makers are blessed. Those who do these things repeat what God did at the dawn of the world. In the beginning, God constructed the world in 7 days, planted a garden for His creation’s enjoyment, and clothed humanity when they needed it, due to sin. Indeed, God’s caring heart is even more pronounced than that, for He presented the animals to the man for him to name and even gave him a suitable partner, all because the man was too lonely. And if we are the ones God has chosen to bear his image, we should not only do these things but should even allow them to happen. That is what this saying means in the Christian perspective.
"...How you live is the most reliable indicator to what you believe."
you nailed it. full and complete.
Amen
I was just thinking about his ending quote and was going to post it too. Thanks for doing it for me 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Amen. Amen. Amen! 🙏
What about people who lost all faith because of abuse and constant suffering? Do you dare to criticise them too? And how dare you to criticise when even Jesus said do not judge and you won’t be judged?
I was led to read Jude this morning by Holy Spirit and I believe this short book is very relevant to right now.
Thanks for your testimony! I was led to read it last night and today. Then I watched this excellent video here. HalleluYAH! 🙌🏽
Yoooo same, after reading it I thought of rewatching this video
I was just led to read it and yall are correct
This, is one of the most convicting, most irrefutable books of the bible.. now I know what matters, ABOVE ALL ELSE- Loving and living for Jesus, obedience. This was a punch in the face that I'm thankful for. Been feeling off lately. God bless everyone and thanks again, Bible project. 👍🏼
Jude did not understand how faith works.
Your way of depicting the scriptures through art is commendable. Glory be to Lord God Almighty

Bible Project, thank you from the bottom my heart & Soul for making learning the Bible fun & entertaining. I am almost done watching every video you've made from Genesis to Revelations and I am now reading the whole Bible :) God used Bible Project to lure me to Him :) you guys/gals at BP are a blessing to me :)
That’s great! God bless❤
For such a small book in terms of length, the book of Jude is really loaded with lots of pearls to reflect on.
I hope you do a video on praying in the spirit and speaking in tongues
You speak in tongues every day.
8 primary languages make up English.
God is a God of action.
.Psalm 3:3 (KJV)
But thou, O LORD, [art] a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
Glory-
Outline of Biblical Usage:
glory, honour, glorious, abundance
abundance, riches
honour, splendour, glory
Splendour/ Latin for SHINE BRIGHT.
Daniel 12:3 (KJV) And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
Totally agree.
"How you live is the most reliable indicator of what you actually believe."
Not what you feel, not what you think, not what you say that matter. It's what you do.
Gin
Wow, I really felt this quote... 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Kenneth Copeland and his " tube of demons " reference is deemed good by the evil angel, so says the church,, so yea..bending in a path of persuasion i Reckon.
And?
Nice... try to impress others with your works so that they will think you have faith. This is the height of arrogance.
Faith comes by hearing God speak in a two-way conversation (prayer). It's not our faith that counts, it's God's own faith he personally establishes in us.
@@Zulonix my bet is what He said,
"Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’"
He said "DOes" the will of His Father.
Now I am not an English native speaker, but I am pretty sure "DOes" is a present continuous form of do, which means work.
This was very well done. We had a bible study today going through Jude, and we had quite a confusing time making sense of these references to other stories. This helps a lot.
There is great debate in church's about this book, it hits hard to those that won't stop their addiction to porn and those who live in fornication with a partner. These two sins dominate the church and the main argument of those who engage in them is that (Jesus blood covers my sin and by you saying I need to stop is saying my sin is greater then his blood, they say I am once saved always saved, and I confess I believe in Jesus and that's all I need.) This book shows them clear as day that this view is a perverted view of God's Grace and it will continue to cause conviction lest their hearts become hard. I pray their eyes are opened.
Jonathan Cross
Blood is greater than the sin, but we got give that sin to Jesus and let him keep it by repenting & confessing to God so he can wash it in his blood.
Hunter Cowart But if you make a practice of sinning, then you have deceived yourself and the truth was never in you. You may have spoken words from your mouth but the truth never took hold.
Hunter Cowart
You just said some people don't want to change. God wants to see some effort compared to no effort. With the David example he did some bad stuff, but eventually repented.
" Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: “The Lord knows those who are his,”and, “Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness.” " 2 Timothy 2:19
Christians shouldn't justify any sin that they know of and repetent to God right away.
If I had a drinking problem and got drunk, but later repented of it compared to got drunk a died in an accident. We should do the first and not the second. God wants us to dominate sin with his help. We're not perfect, but God will give us time to overcome our personal sins that we may struggle with because we should be growing spirtually throughout our lives by spending time with & letting the Holy Spirit tell us what to do. God hates sin and we should love what God loves and hate what God hates.
romans 8:2
" because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death "
romans 8:14
" For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace "
Jonathan, when "christians" say things like "once saved always saved is a heresy or perverted view of God's grace" it absolutely astonishes me. First of all, I don't know ANYONE that believe once they are saved, they're free to sin as much as they please. That is ridiculous. If you believe that once the Son justifies you, and you are no longer held guilty in God's court, and then suddenly you can un-justify yourself due to sin, then you are sadly mistaken my friend. Please read John 10:29. If you believe sin can unwash a sinner, you are the one, in fact, perverting God's grace. Are you really going to stand before God and tell him He couldn't save to the uttermost? Are you really going to stand before God and tell Him He couldn't keep all His sheep?
Do you know what Double Jeopardy means? It means one cannot be tried for the same crime twice, and if you believe you can lose your salvation, than you believe in double jeopardy. That doesn't fly in human court, you really think it flies in God's perfect court? If you believe that, then God can justify a man, declare him not guilty, than re-charge him/find him guilty for crimes/sins he was previously acquitted from. That is NOT justice. That is not the God of the Bible. How much sense does that make?
Now, out of love, I'm going to exhort you to be more careful how you address this issue. I guarantee you that ETERNAL means ETERNAL. The Son gives ETERNAL life, not conditional life. If you believe you can lose salvation, you earned it to begin with, and you are directly against Ephesians 2:8-9. If I get to Heaven one day, and learn I didn't sin away my salvation, well, I think I might be able to boast a little. But clearly, there will be no boasting in Heaven. If you believe you can maintain your salvation by not sinning it away, then my friend, you are working for your salvation and aligning yourself with occult beliefs. Cults believe they maintain their salvation, not Christians. If I've misunderstood you, then I apologize and deeply regret my post. God Bless, and YES, I pray eyes are opened indeed.
Hypernikao Productions Hey I read your entire post, and it has really good observations from the word. Thanks for the response. You misunderstood me a little, I don't believe in works or earning salvation. I read the Bible about once every 2 days for a few chapters or a book (Mostly New testament but recently im into the old testament study) It's clear to me we are made right only by the Blood of Christ and you cannot boast because you didn't do anything towards the saving process. But the other thing that has become more and more clear to me is that God honors our choices. We could talk about the Armani vs Calvin all day and get nowhere so to be simple about what I get from the scriptures and personal conviction from the Holy Spirit is that, on the day of Judgement there will be a vast many who are suprised when Jesus says he never knew them, you who practice sin. In short I believe those people who he never knew are the ones who think they are saved and our actually not, they appear to be because they associate with a church and with other Christians, but they are still lost. He says I "never" knew you so they surrounded themselves with Christ but never let him in. In Jude when he says some are in the church who say we can sin and still be consider a Christ follower, I believe these are the modern day apostates who have sex outside of marriage, watch porn, hold unforgivness inside etc. And when you address them about it (cause I have in a nice way, all I did was point it out and asked how come they still do it in a soft voice and out of concern) they say it's OK I'm saved, I'm not perfect man, I can't leave her, or I want what I want porn makes me happy, etc. The post was to point out how in churches today in America this is being accepted by Pastors and Elders as a genuine doctrine. And on judgement they who are living in these sins believing they have something they don't will be cast into Hell forever and it concerns me.
I'm always so impressed with these videos.
Thank you for taking the time to produce these!
Bible Munch love your channel
Shut up
@@akimoetam1282 don't scream, call Akim
awesome....eh...
This is the first time I heard these references to the extra writings Jude would be referring to; even after 3 years of bible school in the 1980s.awesome job...Thank you!
Ah Byblos school. They never explained where the Greeks took the word from. Egypt, grandpa of Babylon.
This is eye-opening. Thank you for all the in-depth details included in your video!
May God bless your work more, guys!
I'm JUIFS HAYTIEN TRIBU LEVI
Good teaching of the book of Jude
Good Morning!
Thank you for diligently doing these videos. They are such a learning tool.
I wanted to share.
In 2015 while riding in a car I heard the Lord say Jude in my right ear. I didn't know about the book of Jude. When I got home, I walked into the house and grabbed the Bible and immediately found Jude. Validation it was a word from the Lord.
I then saw all of the corruption in my church and left. Tried several churches after. To this day, I have not found a church to attend.
I truly believe we are in the age of Jude, pre-revelations. Turn back to God and He will heal our land is the message I received that day!
Thanks again for your hard work creating these videos. ❤🤍💙
"for Christians, how you live is the most reliable indicator of what you believe."
Thank you for your work on developing explanation for the book of Jude (Judah).
Having a surreal moment while listening to this great piece of Bible audio . For whatever reason I have been under the process of change via the Helper that god has sent to me and the strongest feeling compels me to tell as many as I can because I can not bare the thought of an alternate reality where my heart was any other way .
Thankyou for this video and God bless you
It would be really cool if you guys did an episode on the book of Enoch and all the other books that were removed from the bible. I would like to learn the history of them and what they are trying to teach me about Jesus.
I also really love your work by the way!!!
I agree with you Jordan Knox. I too would live to learn more on the books that didn't make it in the Bible.
Enoch wasn't "removed", it was never a part of the complete cannon.
It isn't apart of the Bible for a reason.
The “Canon” you might mean didn’t exist until 2nd or you may mean the one from the 5th century hundreds of years after Jesus’ birth. Yes, Jesus himself quoted the book of Enoch and said to those who did not know it, “You are mistaken because you do not know the Scriptures.” That’s in Matthew we can all agree if Jesus said it’s the scriptures it’s the scriptures, unlike letters to early churches where even the writer will often explain these are their opinions and not a message form the Lord. One example being when Paul says “he feels…” it was his instruction not as a prophet speaking the words of God, but as a church leader addressing current and localized issues with, in that case, what “he feels” or “ To the rest I say this, I, not the Lord: if…”
Yes, the book of Enoch was hidden away with the dead sea scrolls for over 2000 years, it’s a book about demons (The great commission and Mark 16 makes a pretty clear that Christians are supposed to be dealing with those) and the end of time, why on earth would people suddenly be waking up, post World War II, that it’s meant to be scripture too? God’s timing! There are not contradictions that I’ve seen in that book to scripture, but I have seen contradictions in that book with what churches try to push that never was in scripture.
@@SRose-vp6ewthank you, I will check it out, I was wondering and didn't want to mislead myself, but I want to fight the fight I am purposed for.
Am so blessed by you guys.I dont have words to articulate how grateful I am for what you are doing!!!
Love it, love it, love it!
Thank you Lord Jesus, thank you everyone at The Bible Project!
God bless you everyone 🙏🙌💕
This book is a eye opener as I have read The Book of Enoch praise the Lord and thank you Jesus Christ for the wisdom that you have imparted into me amen
@Martin Connolly any source?
@Martin Connolly Jude didn't know what he was talking about.
God Bless Bible Project, i am a. Teacher of the word of God in my church. Love to use skits, dramas & videos to teach biblical lessons. And you offer all respurces free! Your videos can be used in children's class - through - the adult classes. May all the Glory & Honor go to our Savior Jesus Christ. Thank you for your work & ministry! 🙏 Sis. in the Lord, Nayda R.
This feels like my best video yet and I have watched every Bible video except Revelations(which I would next by God's grace). God bless you abundantly BibleProject
I saw this in my dream a few days ago. JUDE. So decided to go in depth on this Book in The Bible. It reflected on my frustrations of a World riddled with corrupt supposed pastors of God. And the punishment that awaits them and a World of sinful lust. And also my anticipation of his mighty return. Thank you. Beautifully and precisely explained.
That’s crazy because I just got this book in my dream today, “The Book of Judah”. For some reason I never knew it existed. But it’s been a warning for myself, where I tend to follow the convenient belief that I’m automatically forgiven because I have faith in Jesus. It seems I must’ve misinterpreted the bible somewhere along the way. But the message in this book couldn’t have come to me at a better time.
I just came to the comments to say thank you for your explanation of Jude. After reading through Jude this morning, I was like "what did I just read?" Lol. But now, I have a much better understanding 🧡
"Uh, honey...?" lol
Marc Schneider had me dying
yep haha
Thank you The Bible Project for your work. They have been an immense help in making me understand the bigger picture with much needed details. God bless your work

ISAIAH 65 - JUDE
“I have stretched out My hands all day long to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, according to their own thoughts.” (Isaiah 65:2)
WORDS BY: JESUS
"One of the major things that people lack is fear. People fear the wrong things in life instead of the fear that matters. Instead of fearing God, they fear the things of the natural - what they are going to eat, what tomorrow brings, what jobs they want and what life they want to live. The list goes on. To have the true fear of God does not mean living in fear but respect and honour. This comes down to how much you place a value on My words. Do you treat them lightly or as the weight of the universe? For I tell you if you value each word and where it came from, if you truly grasped this, you would be very hesitant doing anything outside My will and if you do so, it would be with utmost conviction. This is what it means to have the fear of God, knowing that one word from Him is enough to create or destroy all creation. Jude warns of such people who do not fear God and walk in a way that is not good according to their own thoughts and ungodly lusts. They will be judged as mockers of My kingdom who treated My words as causal as a game. However, the faithful will be rewarded and increased spiritually.
The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom because it is the first step of walking in honour. And when you honour who I am and the righteousness I stand for, you will be renewed day by day into My image as Enoch was. The renewal of the mind is very important because the thought life can be the greatest snare to humanity if left unchallenged. Bind yourself with the fruit of love and holiness that you may have a walk worthy of Me fully pleasing Me, being fruitful in every good work. For as long as you stick close to Me, then life will follow you and you will be ready for the end time warfare."
How do you feel about extra canonical books?
i Mean as those books accepted by the orthodox. Ethiopian orthodoxy is actually how we have 1 Enoch i believe.
BibleProject so yeah only problem about this is that you skipped over VERSES 22-23
22 And on some have compassion, making a distinction;
23 But others save with fear pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh. -Jude 22-23 NKJV
2 Peter 2:15-22 (KJV) 15 Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam [the son] of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; 16 But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet. 17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. 18 For when they speak great swelling [words] of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, [through much] wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. 19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. 20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known [it], to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. 22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog [is] turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.
...the MESSENGERS who leave their coarse...ARE MEN LIKE BALAAM. The STARS.
Daniel 12:3 (KJV) And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
BALAAM strayed from coarse, becoming a prolific cautionary tale.
And so that shinning head of gold, Nebuchadnezzar, shined his light on Who has dominion in the affairs of men, and the nations, and surprise, surprise, it’s not who you’d think based on these traditions of men.
Daniel 4:1-3 (KJV) 1 Nebuchadnezzar the king, unto all people, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth; Peace be multiplied unto you. 2 I thought it good to shew the signs and wonders that the high God hath wrought toward me. 3 How great [are] his signs! and how mighty [are] his wonders! his kingdom [is] an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion [is] from generation to generation.
Daniel 4:17 (KJV) This matter [is] by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.
God bless my brothers and sisters in Christ. 🙏✝📖🦋
Wow! What a informative video. The animation and the narration really help us open the pages of the Bible. I did not know that the Book of Jude contains excerpts from early Jewish literature. Praise the Lord who wants His people to remain obedient to Him through holy living. This was so much more than history lesson. Thank you for encouraging all of the brothers and sisters out there.
Shalom thank you so much for recognising the importance of the Accient books ,I personally have read some of them and it's like they feel in the missing pieces of the puzzles in the old Testament and I decided to start reading the old Testament from the beginning again because Christ and other Apostles quote from them alot and it's important to know the story behind their quotations. Shalom Aleichem to you all children of Yahweh.
Your commentaries are so very helpful in understanding God's word, especially in light of historical background clarifications. Thank you.
Thank you for making summary. Its very helpful. God bless you and your ministry.
Jude may be the shortest chapter in the book but it is one the most important chapters in the Bible. Thanks for the review brother reading the Bible is hard to understand but with your videos it makes it so much easier.
PRAISE JESUS that it is HE who keeps ME from Stumbling and gives me The POWER of THE HOLY SPIRIT to Overcome Sin!!!
God is awesome. Thank you Lord for this day!
Thank you very much for this simple-to-understand presentations of God's word. The animation is also very nice...
Such a great ministry you guys have. God bless!
I love your animations they bring so much knowledge and my eyes have really been opened by these videos thank you.
Hi sister 👋 shalom...May I asked what inspired you to watch this video? Im going to defend its authenticity this Sunday against a group of leading Muslim apologists
Jude is an amazing letter. Bible Project & Konoinia House are my favorite teachers because of all the information you both put out to us. Thanks
And yet the “new covenant” is taught a little different.
Jeremiah 31:33-34 (KJV) 33 But this [shall be] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. 34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Why is the Woman of Rev 12 wearing the seal of 12 Stars?
Because it’s Torah, and applied on earth among men, IS,
Deuteronomy 11:21 (KJV) That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.
Wayward stars are what exactly. I notice this depiction mentions all indicators of the false prophet, but the referral to wayward stars. What is a Star?
Daniel 12:3 (KJV) And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
I love this teaching it’s really good in Sunday school thank you
Excellent analysis... You know the content is in-depth when watching the video takes more time than reading the book itself...
Thank you for making these videos. They are a blessing!
A good teacher has a way of making complex things very simple..like Derek Prince. You have explained this book very well. I watched it sevetal times. Took notes and plan on reading the book of Jude again with the increased understanding. Thank You for making this video. I can't wait to see the rest of them.
What a blessing your ministry is!
Thank you for all you do. The bible project is amazing and I'm grateful for your work. God bless you 🙂
I love the letter of Jude.his words really cling to me
Awesome teaching- Thank you. ,and PRAISE BE TO GOD, THANK YOU JESUS !!!!
Love your summaries here! Great stuff once again!
Very good summary that balances the content of Jude by not get sidetracked by the extra-Biblical accounts. Really appreciate your ministry....
awesome videos. sometimes I like to imagine how it must've been like for Jesus's brothers when Jesus was crucified. I mean that was hard for a family to go through.
I’m so blessed today, thanks for this work. My faith literally grew from understanding why Judah wrote in this context. Doubt needs to be snuffed out, if anyone believes the Bible has error they do not have enough understanding. It’s difficult to translate the full setting of culture from each book of the Bible. Thank you Lord for Honest Shepards.
Honest shepherds passing “wine” to the laity. Weird that the wormwood sells the Best.
Jeremiah 23:14 (KJV)
I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.
Jeremiah 23:15 (KJV)
Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets; Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall: for from the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone forth into all the land.
And from there, it only telescopes. Ask the ancients , after all, Rev 12 states the woman is sealed with 12 stars.
Daniel 12:3 (KJV) And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
Sorry, forgot, what is a Nicolation? Compound Greek word meaning power over laity.
Hebrews didn’t have pulpits and “taught down” theology, church and circus being from same root word.
Could you do a video about the creation of the modern Bible and how the different books and texts were collated into becoming the Bible and why? Would be very interesting
I haven't read much on it .. but this is what I know. By around 100-200 ad, there were a lot of scrolls circulating that claimed to be inspired by God. Church leaders started recognizing this is a problem and decided to make lists of scrolls which were safe to read. After a while most of them agreed on the books that we have now have as the Bible cannon. In choosing a book to be part of the cannon it had to meet certain requirements like
1. Be written by one who was agreed to be a true prophet of God, which was proven by their miracles.
2. Be written by eye witnesses. That's why the book of Judas was discarded, because it was written about 200 years after the death of Judas.
3. Have no historical or factual errors.
There is a whole lot more involved but I hope this has helped even a little bit.
Byblos- ancient Egyptian word for well of El’s. Source of gods.
Greeks pantheon is reason for the word found nowhere within.
Thank you for sharing the word of God to the world
I am waiting anxiously for Revelation, hahahah. Great vids and explanations!
Oh Lord! Thank you!
Thank you making these videos it’s really helping my journey to get closer to GOD♥️🙏🏽 God bless you guys
Can you please make a video based on the book of Enoch?
I found a text with the book of Enoch. It was very bizarre. I would definitely like to hear/see an educated explanation of the script.
Enoch is crucial to true ‘understanding’ and was removed from the canonical scriptures, because it exposes the truth of history....so people would believe the lies of Satan. ENOCH is scriptural,
I downloaded an app of the boom of Enoch. Seriously it explains so much I don’t know why it was taken out. It even talks about Jesus.
It explains so much about the spiritual realm, it’s good to read it.
The Book of Enoch is a false book that is full of contradictions. The parts of Enoch that are consistent are already in the canon Bible. Take it from someone who has read parts of these so-called lost books just stick to the 66 Canon. The things that you will read are so bad you will not even be able to finish these books without laughter and/or anger. Fear the LORD and keep the Commandments.
PhiladelphiYAH Redeem for the Afroasiatik Diaspora while i agree if it were meant to be canon it would, i do think it’s important christians to look into as they grow in their faith, in order to better understand genesis 6 and the reasoning for the flood. it also helps explain where ancient cultures get their “gods” from
Nowadays I read a book in bible and check my understanding with your videos. And I have to say that I always get to learn new things and they help me to look at things in different perspective. Thanks.
May God bless you all :)
God is Great You too!
You too!
Love in Christ God bless you
A great video and helps to understand the book as it was written and concludes to how we should live very well. So relevant today.
I pray teaching in the church was sometimes this well delivered.
lucky are y'all that got to see that Revelation Livestream. I was halfway done when they cut off the broadcast!
+The Bible Project please post that stream again!
They're going to release the full revelation videos later this month.
To the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.
It’s funny that’s what my dad told me “if you love you should obey me”
This is an outstanding study you have done with excellent supporting scripture!
Jesus is God
The One True God.
yesssss!
+Matt King And God
Matt King john 1:1, john 1:14
The Father, the Son and the Spirit are three parts of One God. Jesus is the Son of God, but it also God.
I hope you never stop teaching us the word of the Lord. You do such a wonderful job. You sound humble for one thing. you sound professional but you don't sound overly technical and everything is simple but done in such a significant and professional way.
before I read the books of the Bible I always go to an overview that you have about the book. So I'm able to understand it before I even read it. Actually I feel like I got it all from you before I even read it LOL!
Thank you so much for the effort and hard work that you put in all of what you do. I can see that you have your whole heart in it.
May God continue to bless you for all you do for all of us and for the Lord.
God bless you always 💝
Merry Christmas 💝🎀💝
I love this Bible series! Have you considered making a similar series on some apocryphal?
To him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy- to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.
Jude 1:24-25
Wow, another outstanding presentation. Thank you so much.
thanks to all at the bible project for your hard work and commitment to the Word
Hey Jude
Revelation is next!! i cant wait!!
Thank you for many a fresh and spiritually WISE overview Brethren..
Why at 0:30 is there no sign of James as Jesus' brother? Is he also known as Jacob?
That’s exactly it I think
You’re absolutely correct! I think the Hebrew name is Ya’akov, which we translate to Jacob…don’t exactly know how we ended up at James.
I love your Videos, Awesome. Thank you Jesus’
Jesus loves you very much
It is very nice presentation. In the verse 5, it says "Jesus... saved a people out of the land of Egypt" which shows the Apostolic understanding of Jesus Christ. Book of Jude is a great antidote for hypergrace teaching.
6:19 "Call mom" lmao
Ya'll have done such an excellent job at Bible Project. I tremendously enjoyed this concise and clear overview of Jude.
Your videos never fail to amaze me! Great job again guys! I do have one question though, why didn't Jesus's brothers follow Him prior to His resurrection?
The same reason many today do not follow him after his resurrection. I realize that is a vague answer, but there really is no one universal reason why many refuse to follow Jesus. Jesus himself depicted four different kinds of minds (Luke 8:5-8); his purpose was not to enforce a statistic (i.e. it's not that only 25% will obey Jesus), but rather to show us that different factors keep the seed from taking root.
In the Synoptic gospels, they sought Jesus to take him home (presumably because they thought he had lost his mind [see Mark 3:21] or that he was embarrassing their family name). Perhaps the most infamous account of their unbelief is in John 7:1-10. The text implies that his brothers wanted him to die (i.e. by going back to Judea). We read, "Not even his brothers believed in him." (7:5). Perhaps they did not believe out of resentment ("He's mother's favorite child!"), bitterness ("He's bringing reproach on our family name"), or envy (the same reason the Jewish leaders killed Jesus; see Mark 15:10). The saying is often true, "Familiarity breeds contempt."
We do not see them as believers until after the resurrection as believers (Acts 1:14).
Thank you so much for the clarity. That helped a lot! God bless!
Josh McPheron I also think mostly the same reason why His own town or village dint believe in Him, if your brother told you I am God ,you are probably going to have a hard time believing him than a stranger who did not know anything about your brother. Hope that also helped
They, once were blind (like everyone else) but now they see 😇 God's Master Plan ❤✔
This really makes you think: Am I really living for Jesus?❤
So, are we going to have a video on the Book of Enoch at some point?
That’s what I came for. I’m surprised they even acknowledged it. Idk why they thought we wouldn’t be like “what the heck??”
I don't think they're interested in making waves among the denominations that use their work.
Your videos are brilliant and so easy to follow. All your efforts are much appreciated. Many thanks! 😀
thanks for making this video. I have been watching your channel right after reading the books
Thank you so much for your videos!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I watch all of them 👍
If we say we have God's Spirit why not following It? The Holy Spirit will never lead us into sin.
Correction:
_If we say we have God's Spirit why are we not following HIM?_
The Holy Spirit is a Person. Not a thing.
The remarks about the texts Jude quoted were so helpful! Thanks!
I like how you mentioned 1st Enoch
It is fascinating how other stories of the Bible of times of Moses and stuff like that is talked about in the New testament coincide with each it amazing .
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! We got the whole Bible! o>
Amen God bless you , thankful for this presentation of Jude. 😊
Your videos are so well done! Thank you! New subscriber!
I never heard of that book before the psuedopigrapha. This whole time I thought Jude received the information by revelation from a dream or vision. I didn't know he got it from these two books the Aprocrypha and the Psuedopigrapha. This has definitely been insightful.
It is still revelation…Jude is simply using those previous works with the understanding of who his church is…(early messianic Jews…who were all raised on that literature) to help them understand the revelation from Christ…and “that book” the psuedepigrapha is what it was named after Jude’s time…we know it as that but for them back then it was simply faith based literature…no different from us reading a book by John Piper or another person of the faith
It's possible Jude is referencing Zechariah 3 when speaking about the "body" of Moses and Satan.
We want to think Jude is referring the physical dead body of Moses when what he is talking about is the "people" of Moses(Old Covenant Israel) as a body in the same way the "people" of Christ are called the "Body" of Christ.
Very interesting and spirit-stirring. Thanks for sharing that with us .
Of course he is talking about Israel, the body of Moses.
Thank you so very much for the graphics showing the Bible versus and other sources you mention in the video.
This is the second video where you've said a passage is referring to 1 Enoch angel shenanigans, but after reading them, I interpreted it as referring to fallen angels, i.e. demons/devils/angelic followers of Satan. Just a thought
Enoch is also referring to fallen angels as the cause for demons/devils/angelic followers of Satan etc.
But fallen angels ARE demons/devils/angelic followers of Satan. So... Where is the doubt?
Right people want their private interpretation apart from the inspired word of God and end up rejecting truly inspired text but all is needed is to seek the truth and would find they really don't contradict God's word just our own fallen carnal understanding that simply needs to be transformed by the renewing of our mind by the truth of God in the heart and his Spirit. No doubt Enoch was and is a holy prophet inspired by God as scripture testifies. God Bless
The Book of Enoch is flawed with many contradictions and if you had already read the regular Bible you would have realized this. Put that piece of garbage down and stick to the 66 books to get better understanding. Study to show thyself approved.
@@philadelphiyahhsmyrna0 Even though 1 Enoch is not canonical, it inspired Jude to include a passage which we cannot not find in Genesis. In the story of a Bible scholar named Michael Heiser, he encountered people who are not comfortable with strange passages of the Bible. This is why he wrote many books in order to disprove modern interpretations and commit ourselves to the Bible text.
The Bible today is not a complete book. The story continues on and is written by ancient people who were inspired by God. But it is not a given as a rule book that is dropped down from the skies but as a book that tells us our physical and spiritual purpose to walk with God.
Convincingly explained, Praise God. Thanks
As a Protestant Christian, notice the Bible Project has no intention of producing videos covering the Deuterocanonical CATHOLIC books for a reason..
Too bad. You could learn a thing or two. The books of Wisdom and Sirah are pearls. Judith and Tobit are nice little stories.
Again, so many thanks for creating these videos to help us understand the context around the Bible! I find it funny that it may take more time to watch this video than it would take to read the book of Jude itself. 😅
where have you guys been all my life?
