NOW ANDFOREVER
Jude is moved to end his epistle with a “doxology”...
means “An expression of praise to God”
NOW ANDFOREVER
Doxologies are common in the
Scriptures
““
Now to him who is able to strengthen you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery that was kept secret for long ages
ROM 16:25
““
but has now been disclosed and through the prophetic writings has been made known to all nations, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith
ROM 16:26
““
to the only wise God be glory forevermore through Jesus Christ! Amen.
ROM 16:27
NOW ANDFOREVER
The format of a doxology is usually in two parts:
1. An address to the one being praised, including reasons for the praise being offered
2. The expression of praise itself.
NOW ANDFOREVER
In “Jude’s Closing Doxology” (24-25), we find this epistle closing on a very high note, not in doubt and fear
With a beautiful expression of faith and hope
To live with a strong assurance of faith and hope.
