Thesis: Physical harm and terror are real but limited in their scope. Spiritual terrorists can effect a person's eternal destiny. Jude warns us against the tactics and guiles of the enemy that would seek to keep us from an eternity with Christ.
Evil teachers have consistent characteristics: * Twist theology * Put human experience above God's Word * Love worldly passions * Doesn't struggle with self sin * Reject authority, Christ's lordship * Profane sacred things * Make Bible a "magic" book * Create own religion/justification * Create own/extra book of rules * Strive to earn God's favor/salvation * Seek earthly rewards * Church consumers, not encourages
CONCLUSION: Evil/False teachers are idealistic, insurgent, insolent and idolaters. The true believer is to be alert to their tactics and perservere in the true faith; following Christ and submitting to his rule, Word and salvation.
