| "for this condemnation" - God set them aside for condemnation, and then they chose the path of heresy as well. Heresy is its own condemnation because a heretic believes a lie, and may even do so sincerely.
| "ungodly people, who pervert the grace of God...and deny our only Master" - heresy, ungodliness, comes when people pervert grace and deny authority. I wonder how this came to pass there.
| "into sensuality" - Unlike in Galatia, where legalism was the heresy, Jude's audience seems to have perverted the grace of God into some sort of license for ungodly pursuit of physical pleasure. Did it begin with small compromises among a few and then grow into an adjusted theology?
