Book Description

Excerpt from Beautiful Pearls of Catholic Truth: Containing the Teachings of the Holy Catholic Church, and the Sacred Books of the Bible, as Interpreted by the One True Church Founded by Our Divine Saviour The authenticity of the Second and Third Epistles was denied by some scholars. They be long, however, to the canon received by the Church, and bear intrinsic evidence of St. John's authorship, besides the external weight of authority which ascribes these two letters to him. The epistle OF st. Jude the apostle - Jude was the brother of St. James the Younger or the Just, Bishop of Jerusalem. He was, consequently, a son of Alpheus or Cleophas, and a near relative of our Lord. It is not known when and where this epistle was written. It warns the faithful against following certain false teachers and sharing their awful doom. The reader will perceive, on an attentive perusal, how closely it resembles the Second Epistle of St. Peter.
