Hypocrisy

²⁷ Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchers, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.

²⁸ Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

Matthew 23:27-28 KJV

~~~~~~~~~~~

Hypocrisy is practiced more than not,

And chances are you practice every day,

Pretending you are wise and know a lot

When really you're an ass that loves to bray.

That suit you wear on Sunday, crisp and clean,

Is like a coat of paint on rust and rot.

That Bible in your hand on Sunday seen

Back home is tucked away behind your pot.

Remember, were it not for God's good Grace,

You would be bound for Hell for all you've done.

Get humble now and fall upon your face;

Repent and follow Christ, the perfect one.

If you don't think you are a hypocrite,

You're worse along than you care to admit.
