“Meddle Not With Mockers”
Saturday, May 3, 2025Key Verse
“How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts” (Jude 1:18).
Text —Jude 1:17-21
Message
Mockers are those who simply ignore wisdom like the fool. They actively oppose wisdom by demeaning those who are wise. Mockers jeer or mock at godly people and sacred things. Scriptures warn that we should not meddle with mockers and scoffers. Some mockers say that there is no God, heaven or hell. Others say that Jesus is not coming again (2Peter 3: 3-4). In fact they call good evil and evil good.
Mockers provoke the righteous to get into strife, and do evil. However, like other sinners, they need the gospel. Dear friend, wisely give it to them especially through gospel tracts and the social media while you pray for their repentance. Do not waste time with them in arguments. You can also invite a more mature Christian to minister to any of them who becomes a sincere seeker. God can save any hardened sinner. Think of Saul on the way to Damascus. Jesus knocked him off his horse, and spoke in an audible voice to him. He still saves in these last days despite the terrifying increase in the rate of iniquity.
