Ciara was a powerful witch who was shunned by her people and cursed an entire town. She had two daughters, Ida Jessica and the frail Charlotte who was disposed of. Ida grew up happily with Ciara but overheard disturbing conversations, including Ciara arranging Ida's marriage to a man she was told to kill. Fearing for her life, Ida ran away in the night, changing her name to Jessica Robinson and escaping to college. Ciara was left devastated by Ida/Jessica's departure. The document leaves the reader questioning whether Ciara is truly wicked or not.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer.

2. Ciara was a witch, there was no way of phrasing it differently. She had once been a powerful sorceress but then she was shunned by her people and then she had cursed Kimberton. Then there was nothing left except her daughter Ida Jessica, she had another daughter Ida’s twin Charlotte a weak ill baby. Charlotte had been disposed of by “E” her half brother.
