Jude 1:12-19 - The Apostates' Doom

12 These people are stains on your love-feasts; they have no qualms about carousing in your midst, they look after none but themselves ??rainless clouds, swept along by the wind, trees in autumn without fruit, doubly dead and so uprooted, 13 wild waves foaming out their own shame, wandering stars for whom the nether gloom of darkness has been reserved eternally.

14 It was of these, too, that Enoch the seventh from Adam prophesied, when he said, Behold the Lord comes with myriads of his holy ones, 15 to execute judgment upon all, and to convict all the impious of all the impious deeds they have committed, and of all the harsh things said against him by impious sinners.

16 For these people are murmurers, grumbling at their lot in life ??they fall in with their own passions, their talk is arrogant, they pay court to men to benefit themselves.

17 Now, beloved, you must remember the words of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; 18 they told you beforehand, "At the end of things there will be mockers who go by their own impious passions." 19 These are the people who set up divisions and distinctions, sensuous creatures, destitute of the Spirit.
