I read the sentence.
The author of Judes makes no such claim. He seems to take all the credit for writing it.
Do I have to explain "inspiraion?" What do you think compelled him to write on contending for the faith when he says he wanted to write about salvation? Talk about gagging on gnats....
So, the Old Testament writers were not led by the Holy Spirit? Is that what you are saying?
Boy, you "deep thinkers" got it all over on me!
Here I thought there was an obvious difference between inferring from a chain of events, and explicit declaration! Guess I need to work on my evidence building skills.
You mean you read INTO it? Perhaps you need to re-read it. You will find that Jude takes full responsibility for his writing being his will and intention. He does not invoke the assistance of the Holy Spirit leading him.

How about prove it? At this point it's a conjecture yet you treat it as a matter of fact.
What do you think compelled him to write on contending for the faith when he says he wanted to write about salvation?
From what he says, it wasn't anything other than his will and intention.
Talk about gagging on gnats....
I agree. You will need at least a box of toothpicks.

So then, according to you, the Gospels are just narratives...the real "meat" of the New Testament is to be found in the deuterocanonical works of dubious origin, because they are inspired declarations, instead of simples stories...that's not what the Church teaches either.
As for evidence building skills, how about just some evidence other than your private interpretations? :)
