Dr. Alan Cairns concludes his study of the Epistle of Jude with a powerful exhortation on the necessity of defending the faith once for all delivered to the saints. He emphasizes that apostasy—whether in doctrine, morality, or gender roles—has never produced spiritual fruit and is fundamentally opposed to God's sovereignty. Drawing from Jude 7 and other biblical references, Cairns identifies radical feminism, the acceptance of homosexuality, and moral perversion as modern manifestations of apostasy, warning that such movements break the divine order established by God. He calls believers to personal holiness through prayer, spiritual growth, and steadfastness in hope, while also engaging in soul-winning evangelism with wisdom and discernment. The sermon culminates in a confident declaration that God Himself defends the faith and will ultimately judge apostates, offering assurance to believers that they are kept by His power.
Apostasy produces no spiritual fruit and cannot build the church or bring revival.
Defending the faith requires personal holiness: abiding in God’s love, building on the faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, and looking to Christ’s mercy.
Evangelism must be done with discernment—compassion for the lost, but caution against being corrupted by immoral environments.
God is actively judging apostates today, and He will ultimately bring final judgment at Christ’s return.
A vibrant, prayer-filled, soul-winning church is the strongest defense against apostasy.
Introduction and Devotional: The Precious Blood of Christ
The episode opens with a devotional reading from Charles Haddon Spurgeon’s 'Morning by Morning,' focusing on the redemptive, cleansing, preserving, sanctifying, and overcoming power of Christ’s blood. This sets a theological foundation for the message on defending the faith.
The Nature and Danger of Apostasy
“Radical feminism is now being accepted in the church, at least in many parts of the church. Radical feminism and it is a deliberate attempt to break the bounds of the sphere that God has given to men and women in the home and in the church. You can't do that without apostasy.”
The Christian Response: Building Up in the Faith
“Christians who are not building up themselves on their most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost... are the greatest encouragement to apostasy that there is.”
Soul-Winning and Discernment in an Apostate Age
“A church will never become apostate while God's people are keeping themselves in the love of God, building themselves in their most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, looking unto the Lord Jesus and winning souls for Him.”

“Apostasy has never produced one saint. Apostasy has never built one church. Apostasy has never seen one revival.”
