The best “known” hypocrites are religious ones. They admire good people (“kinda-sorta”). They (many times) have godly parents. They want you to think they’re good but real christianity has a price “tag” called obedience, from which they shy away. A hypocrite wants to be admired by men but in reality he doesn’t care (enough) about God Almighty. God – who will judge him in decades? Days? – 11/12/19
Only Christ
Clean up a street, a field, a lake
Mankind can do this “work of art.”
Oh, please, make no tragic mistake;
Only Christ can clean up man’s heart.

was shown by his ability to handle his good days.”

Religious hypocrites are bad (don’t get me wrong) but in-a-way the “baddest” are what I’ll call “negative” hypocrites. They want you to think that they’re worse than they are. His foul mouth, the skoal-worn-circle of his Levi pocket, his bragging about women is not all real. He wants to fit in with the “boys” he admires.
Her blouse is daring, her skirt too short, too tight (or both), her face has drugstore colors, her mouth may utter flirtations but if a man responded to this she isn’t the “trash” she appears. She only wants looks & wolf-whistles. She is a negative hypocrite – 11/12/19

QUESTION – central, eastern IN. Does your church/Home Study Group have a prayer meeting – separate from other services – every week, where people come to Just Pray? I’d like to find such. If you don’t have one but are interested starting one, please private message me. There was a Sat. 7 PM prayer mtg. at Hobe (1999-2002) which was a high-light of those yrs to me. Holiness people, we NEED to Pray! – 11/8/19
