Jesus Warned His Disciples- Hypocrisy

Jesus warned His disciples
Concerning the ways of scribes and Pharisees
As of laws they picked at and pulled
Judging only others...guilty of hypocrisy

Jesus would we express love
And more than that...show it
Lifting others t'wards Light above
Discerned...spirit to Spirit

Children Alert and Sensitive to Hypocrisy

"Many of the Savior's harshest rebukes were directed to hypocrites. Jesus warned His disciples concerning the scribes and Pharisees: 'Do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not' (Matthew 23:3). This strong admonition is sobering given the counsel to 'express love—and show it,' to 'bear testimony—and live it,' and to 'be consistent.'"The hypocrisy in our lives is most readily discerned and causes the greatest destruction within our own homes. And children often are the most alert and sensitive when it comes to recognizing hypocrisy."
