You Get What You Get

The book of Jude warns believers about the dangers of rebellion and spiritual drift. Through three cautionary tales from the Old Testament—Cain, Balaam, and Korah—Jude illustrates how rebellion may look appealing but ultimately leads to destruction. Cain represents selfish spirituality that goes through religious motions without true surrender. Balaam demonstrates compromised calling, using spiritual gifts for personal gain. Korah exemplifies pride disguised as concern, challenging legitimate authority out of selfish ambition. These ancient patterns still wreck lives today when we compromise our motives, ignore warning signs, or justify pride in our hearts.
