The document discusses how many natural human instincts like eating, sleeping, and enjoying beauty are elevated to an art form when practiced with virtues like health, manifesting dreams, and spreading happiness. It argues that acts of selflessness, sacrifice, and dedicating one's life to helping others in need are the highest forms of art, including giving wealth to the deprived, ensuring global solidarity, and sacrificing for one's countrymen. The piece ultimately states that while living and surviving is natural, sacrificing one's life to spawn hope and courage for humanity is an immortal living art.

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. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
