Jude 1:24–25
The church’s security rests in the preserving grace and saving glory of God.
24 Now to him who is able to keep them from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory in great joy,
25 to God our Savior, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen.
The church’s security rests in the preserving grace and saving glory of God.
To ground believers’ assurance in God’s preserving power and to ascribe eternal glory to the only God our Savior through Jesus Christ.
Verses 24–25 form the climactic doxology of the epistle. The tone shifts from exhortation (‘keep yourselves,’ v. 21) to praise (‘to Him who is able’). The structure highlights divine ability (v. 24), future presentation in glory (v. 24), and eternal praise to the only God through Jesus Christ (v. 25). The letter ends where confidence must ultimately rest—on God’s preserving grace and eternal sovereignty.
Contend for the Faith, Keep Yourselves in God’s Love, and Rest in the God Who Keeps You
Because ungodly distortion threatens the church, believers must contend for the once-for-all faith with discernment, mercy, and confidence in the God who keeps his people.
