Jude reminds us that the straw of the manger is not just a memory of Christmas past, but a witness to God’s real entrance into history and His promised return. Jude’s warning, echoed by Enoch’s prophecy, declares that the same Jesus who came humbly as Savior will come again in glory as Judge. Today remains the year of the Lord’s favor—but judgment is certain for those who remain ungodly and refuse Christ.
