Jude draws on God’s past judgments to warn and to assure:
- Certain judgment: Israel, the angels, Sodom, Cain, Balaam, and Korah prove God judges the ungodly (Jude 5-11; Numbers 14; 16; 22; Genesis 19).
- The Lord comes in judgment: Enoch’s prophecy points to Christ’s coming to judge all (Jude 14-15; Genesis 5:24; Daniel 7:10).
