Lesson 1: Beware of False Teachers (Grades 6-12)

In verse 4, Jude warns about certain people who have “wormed their way” into the church. What are some of the false things these people were teaching, and why does Jude say they will face God's judgment?

• They were teaching that God's grace allows people to live immoral lives, and they denied Jesus Christ as their only Master and Lord.

• They were encouraging people to pray more and follow God's commandments more closely.

• They believed that Jesus would return soon and wanted everyone to prepare.

• They were teaching that only certain people could be saved if they followed strict religious rules.

Jude gives three examples of how God judged people in the past (verses 5-7). What are these examples?

• The Pharisees rejecting Jesus, Judas betraying Jesus, and Peter denying Jesus three times.

• Noah and his family being saved from the flood, Moses leading the Israelites to the Promised Land, and Jonah warning Nineveh.

• The Israelites who were rescued from Egypt but later refused to trust God, the fallen angels who rebelled, and the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah.

• David defeating Goliath, Elijah calling down fire from heaven, and Daniel surviving the lion’s den.
