Denying God By Actions

Theme for the Week: HYPOCRISY CONDEMNED

Reading: Titus 1:15-16
_______________________

Titus 1:16 (NIV)
They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny Him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good.

No one can be separated from their words. You are what you say, but if what you say is not what you do, then hypocrisy is determined in you.

Many people profess Christ and godly living, but their deeds say otherwise. Such people, by their actions have denied God. Jesus Christ said that by their deeds you shall know them. Hypocrisy is when you say one thing and do another.

Dear friend, let your yea be yea, and your nay be nay; for anything beyond that is of the devil. Always confirm your words by your actions. Do not take the path of the hypocrites; for Christ will spew such out of His mouth in the last day.
Stay blessed. Shalom.

Let's Pray:
All praise to, You, o Jehovah. Father, help us to stand by our words that they conform our actions, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Be Careful Not To Practice Your Righteousness Before Men

Theme for the Week: HYPOCRISY CONDEMNED

Reading: Matthew 6:1-4
_______________________

Matthew 6:1 (NIV)
Giving to the Needy
“Be careful not to do your ‘acts of righteousness’ before men, to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.

Righteousness must be displayed from a genuine and sincere heart. It must be devoid of the tendency to show off what you have or can do; that is hypocrisy.

Many people give alms because they want to be known and recognized with what they have and can do. They give because they want others to know their wealth. No wonder Jesus said that they already had their reward.

Before men, they will be seen and praised for their good deeds, but before God they are like empty vessels making noise. Let love be the reason you do what you do. Never let fame, name or anything make you to act without love.
Stay blessed.

Let's Pray:
Everlasting God, we bless You. LORD, help us to give according to Your will, in the name of Jesus. Amen.
