S2E1: Robert Fergusson: The Letter that Jude did not Write

In the Season 2 premiere of the Hillsong Australia Podcast, Robert Fergusson shares a deeply personal message reflecting on 52 years of following Jesus and the decision that changed his life forever. Drawing from the book of Jude, Robert explores identity, calling, insecurity, and what it means to share in the salvation found in Christ. Through Jude 1:1–4, this message reminds us that our identity is not built on achievement, comparison, or recognition—but on being called by the Holy Spirit, loved by God the Father, and kept by Jesus Christ. ✨ Key Themes • The salvation we share in Christ • Finding identity beyond achievement and comparison • Jude’s story as the younger brother of Jesus • Being called, loved, and kept by God • Contentment, humility, and serving faithfully • The difference between striving and resting in Christ 📖 Scripture References • Jude 1:1–4 • Ezekiel 3:17–19 • Acts 20:28–30 • John 13 – “The disciple Jesus loved” 📚 Resources • 2 Peter and Jude Commentary – Michael Green • The Message Bible – Jude 1:1–4 💬 Quotes • “We don’t need an identity outside of Christ.” • “We don’t need to be first in order to win in life.” • “We are called by the Holy Spirit, loved by the Father, and kept by Jesus Christ.” • “Love is both our inheritance and our commission.” 🚶 Next Steps • Reflect on where comparison or insecurity may be shaping your identity • Read Jude 1 slowly and personally • Spend time thanking God for His mercy, peace, and love • Ask: Am I striving for identity, or resting in Christ? • Invite the Holy Spirit to remind you who you are in Jesus 🔗 Links / CTA • Learn more about Hillsong Australia: https://hillsong.com/australia • Podcast & platforms: https://linktr.ee/HillsongAusPodcast
