Luke-The Investigative Gospel
Beware of the Leaven of the Pharisees
Luke 12:1-3
The question is what we will do when we come across signs of them in our lives, sticking up out of the sand?
I. The Example of Hypocrisy
It describes something small that spreads silently, almost secretly, but ultimately pervasively.
We may give people the impression that we are really rather righteous when in fact our hearts are far from God.
Are you doing anything or saying anything or thinking anything or watching anything with which you would rather not have your name associated?
II. The Exposure of Hypocrisy
But the more we do it, the greater our hypocrisy becomes as we try to hide it.
If you do not confess your sins, including the ones you think that no-one else knows about, then you will live your life in fear of being discovered.
There is no sin that is beyond the forgiveness of God.
