take it or leave it.
Your call.
is used as an archetype to warn believers
about several specific end-times dangers:
Challenging Divinely Appointed Authority:
Korah challenged Moses and Aaron.
Jude applies this to future false teachers
who would reject spiritual authority
and lordship.
Pride and Self-Seeking:
The rebellion was
fueled by
arrogance,
jealousy,
and discontent with
God's assigned roles.
(Resonates...Tons...
cause its exactly
what we got going on
right now today.
People being to worried about their
lil piece of "turf" to tell people
what they ought to be telling them.
Proud of your
"Traditions"
and your
"Church" are you?
Interesting.)
Irreverent Worship:
The rebels presumed to offer
holy incense
without God's authorization.
Final Judgment:
Just as the earth swallowed
Korah's followers
and divine fire consumed his cohorts,
Jude serves notice
that those who lead
similar spiritual rebellions
are doomed to the same fate.
JUDE 5, 11
I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.
11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.
How many sermons
you ever heard about any of that?
Cause you just might
be hearing some here real soon.
THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT KNOW
THEY ARE DOING THIS:
Letting their:
"arrogance,
jealousy,
and discontent with
God's assigned roles."
Get in the way
of what they know
they ought be doing.
Spiritual jealousy will get you
flat out destroyed as will thinking:
"It shouldnt be him/them
it should be one of us."
Same exact reasoning
Korah used.
See: "Numbers 16
Not our fault you never taught it
Tell ya what.
We'll do it for ya.
"Identify and participate in
a fellowship of Christian believers
in which the teaching
OF THE ENTIRE BIBLE
received the primary priority..."

"You cant put people in their place
thats not your job.
Thats God's responsibility."
Paraphrasing Brother Ken Spurrier.
Might just wanna check yourselves.
Just sayin...
