How do we avoid hypocrisy in our lives? We are prone to put on masks that show other people a false side of ourselves, to the detriment of our faith. Hypocrisy is all about advancing our own causes and interests. Jesus calls us to put away external hypocrisy and focus on our internal spiritual health: value authenticity over respectability, focus on your own shortcomings, and understand the way Christianity works.

 

Matthew 23:25-28
