Take Off The Mask | Doug Sauder | Matthew 23
Summary
Jesus, in Matthew 23, directly addresses religious hypocrisy and self-righteousness amongst leaders during his final week. He uses the Greek term "hypocrite," meaning "actor," to expose those who outwardly appear devout but inwardly are empty. The practical takeaway is to examine ourselves for any masks we might be wearing and strive for authentic faith before God.
