You Don’t Have to Pretend with God

Category Uncategorized

The Spiritual Christian life is not for actors or pretenders. In other words, it is not for hypocrites. When Jesus the Christ saw the teachers of the law and Pharisees of his day, he denounced them as hypocrites. In Matthew 23:13, he accuses them of shutting “the door of the kingdom of heaven in the people’s faces.” He points out that the teachers of the law and Pharisees did not enter into the kingdom of heaven themselves, nor did they let others enter who are trying to. Blocking the kingdom of heaven and its spiritual blessings leave hypocrites in a state of woe, and places unnecessary burdens on the people, especially those who place more value on material possession and recognition than on the sacredness of spiritual connections. This recording is a discussion on how we can avoid the mistakes and the desolation of life that follows the ways of the hypocrites, the greedy, the self-indulgent, and the wicked.
