These men are hidden reefs in your love feasts, shamelessly feasting with you but shepherding only themselves. They are clouds without water, carried along by the wind; fruitless trees in autumn, twice dead after being uprooted.
Sin is filthiness; it renders men odious and vile in God's sight, and sooner or later makes them vile in their own eyes and in the eyes of all around them. These filthy dreamers dream themselves into a fool's paradise on earth, and into a real hell at last.
AI summary
Commenting on Jude 1:8-15
These false teachers are hidden rocks in your love feasts, devouring food shamelessly and without reverence, caring only for themselves. They are empty clouds blown by wind, withered trees bearing no fruit, doubly dead and torn up by the roots.
AI summary
Call them rocks, not spots: these are the very reefs on which your Christian gatherings run aground. They feast without fear of God, tending only themselves while the flock starves. Like clouds that promise rain but yield nothing, they are blown about by every wind.
