Facing the scrutiny of Christ!

Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy. For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known.

Jesus hears your every thought and sees your every action. This is the reality of our omniscient God who shatters the ability of a person to hide hypocrisy.

With God your life is an open book. Nothing can be concealed.

You may think you can get away with what is done behind closed doors but you are gravely mistaken.

Hypocrisy is the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one’s own behavior does not conform.

As an example, you are pretending to be a Christian but failing to walk with the moral standards of Jesus.

Jesus spent much of His ministry confronting the Pharisees, the religious leaders of the day, over hypocrisy. They operated with false motives and disparaged the teachings of Jesus.

Jesus ridiculed the Pharisees who could discern a coming storm but were oblivious to the spiritual things of God.

The Christ follower is humble and understands like David “my goodness is nothing apart from You”.

God doesn’t expect a human being to be perfect but He does expect you to have an open heart to accept the conviction and correction of the Holy Spirit.

Walking with God is about change. As a new creature in Christ you are letting go of the past and praying for the transformation of your personality to be more Christ like.

It is impossible to hide from Me. I see everything?
