The document discusses the nature of God's love as described in the Bible. It explains that God showed his love by sending his son Jesus to die for humanity's sins.

The Bible also speaks of God's love in creating the world and his promise of eternal life and a heavenly home for those who believe in him.

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.
