The covenant promise — Jude 1

The imagery here is agricultural — the original audience would have immediately understood the metaphor of sowing, waiting, and harvesting.. Their context of persecution gives these words a weight we often miss.. His timing, His methods, His purposes — all beyond our comprehension, yet perfectly good.. God is faithful in every circumstance.. Now I understand why — it's a daily declaration of dependence on God.. What a reminder that God's ways are not our ways. The promise here is not conditional
