The Leaven of Hypocrisy

The topic is a serious one. In a nutshell, Christ warns us against hypocrisy. Settle it in your hearts, possess ye your souls (imperatives)to confess Christ in the face of all trial, even unto death. There is no higher privilege than for us to be called upon to suffer for His name. And there will be no higher honor in the day of Christ than when He confesses our names before the angels of God and before the Heavenly Father.
