LWGod is the author of the Faith which He has delivered to the saints through ‘holy men of God’ - and it is this Faith which is divine in its origin that we are to defend.:

Study 8B STANDING UP FOR THE TRUTH
DAYS OF HEAVEN UPON EARTH
(Scripture Portion: The Letter of Jude)
There is no other faith. This is the one and only perfect revelation of God, and Jude is careful to use the definite article here! It is “ the Faith once entrusted…” , not a faith - compare Hebrews 1:1-3.Now that we have known what to defend,why are we defending it and how do we go about defending the Faith.
2 . Notice now: WHY ARE WE TO DEFEND THE FAITH ?
The answer is: because the Faith is being attacked. Today all the great fundamental truths of the Christian Faith are being attacked and denied - not just by outsiders, but by men inside the church.
All the teaching in our schools and in the media about Evolution is a direct denial of the truth of God; and this denial has percolated into most of our denominational colleges, pulpits and much literature. Prophecy has been fulfilled - look up 2 Timothy 3:1-8; 4:1-4. We are to defend the Faith and stand up for the Truth! Why should we be silent when our precious Faith is being attacked, and robbed of its supernatural origin, power and glory?
3 . Finally: HOW ARE WE TO DEFEND THE FAITH ?
We should do it in three ways:-
By Living it. There is no greater defence of the Faith and proof of its power than a Christ-like life. Though we must speak the Truth and stand up for the Truth, we must do it in love (Ephesians 4:15). Let us beware of becoming hard, critical, uncharitable and un-Christ-like. Read 1 Corinthians 13:1-3.
By Proclaiming it. Preach the Gospel - the positive certainties of the Faith! This will kill error in the quickest way. By all means expose error, but do so mainly by positive instruction in the Truth. Do not become a heresy hunter!
By Suffering for it. Rather than that the Faith should suffer, we must be willing to suffer, as thousands today are doing. Our forefathers died for the Faith. May God give us grace to follow in their train and at all costs to stand up for the Truth. Read Acts 7:54-60, and compare Acts 5:41-42.Can talk to God in prayer ,ask Him to help you through,so that you will not be left behind and ask for grace to defend real Faith.God bless you.
