Jude 1:17
15 to execute judgment on everyone, and to convict all the ungodly of every ungodly act of wickedness and every harsh word spoken against Him by ungodly sinners.”
16 These men are discontented grumblers, following after their own lusts; their mouths spew arrogance; they flatter others for their own advantage.
But you, beloved, remember what was foretold by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ
18 when they said to you, “In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow after their own ungodly desires.”
19 These are the ones who cause divisions, who are worldly and devoid of the Spirit.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
