Jude exhort us to love one another by keeping account on one anothers faith [biblical doctrines and behaviors]. Jude is addressing three different category of people in the 4 last verses of his one chapter epistle. Here we see 1. Verse 22 he is talking to unbelievers who have doubt because they dont posses yet the Holy Spirit, we ought to convince them of who God is, bringing them to faith in Jesus. 2. Verse 23a is addressing those who have believed but still need to endure in sound doctrines to receive salvation at the appearance of Jesus. And.. 3. Jude is finally addressing those who have been warned and insist on practicing sin, walking in deception to whom Jude says to hate even the contaminated garments they wear, not despising of them but having mercy as God had mercy on us when we were dead in our sins before we found Jesus... Read bellow... Reina Valera included, I believe is best understood in this translation... Maintain Your Life with God Jude 1:20-23 But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, 21 keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. 22 And on some who have doubts, convince them, 23 to others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, to others have mercy, hating even the garment defiled by their flesh. ********************************************************************************************* Judas 1:20-23 Reina-Valera 1960 (RVR1960) Pero vosotros, amados, edificándoos sobre vuestra santísima fe, orando en el Espíritu Santo, 21 conservaos en el amor de Dios, esperando la misericordia de nuestro Señor Jesucristo para vida eterna. 22 A algunos que dudan, convencedlos. 23 A otros salvad, arrebatándolos del fuego; y de otros tened misericordia con temor, aborreciendo aun la ropa contaminada por su carne.
