If you know how to pretend to be on fire for God in the presence of professing Christians, when you are, in fact, as cold as ice, you are a hypocrite.
If you spend more time praying, reading the Bible, Worshiping, etc… in church when others are watching, than you do in secret when only God is watching,YOU MIGHT BE A HYPOCRITE.
If you are more concerned about how you appear in the eyes of mortal men than how you appear in the eyes of The all-seeing God, you are a hypocrite.
Those who say there are a lot of hypocrites in “the Church” should consider two things.

  1. Hypocrites are not TRUE Christians. They are only pretending to be. They go to Church services because it is part of their act. They are actors.
  2. They are not really IN “The Church”, because they have never been born “from above”.
    They may be able to deceive everyone else, but they cannot fool God, and they are also aware that they are faking. If you pretend long enough you can get pretty good at it.

Judas Iscariot was a hypocrite. He could have been nominated as “best actor”. Even when Jesus told His disciples, “one of you will betray Me“, no one suspected Judas. When Jesus said to him, “what you do, do quickly”, the others thought he was going to give money to the poor. He was a good actor.

Are you a good actor?
