HYPOCRISY, LYING AND THE BIBLE – a short note.



Every hypocrite is a liar, though not every liar is necessarily a hypocrite.
In the Bible, lying is condemned as sin.
It corrupts the heart, blinds the soul, and distances us from God.
Hypocrisy is its companion—professing faith while denying it in deed.
It is worship in lips but not in life, a mask of religion without truth.
Such a life breeds confusion, guilt, and judgment—
in this world and before God.
God detests lying lips (Proverbs 12:22).
Lying is the devil’s native language (John 8:44).
Hypocrites honor God with words but not hearts (Matthew 15:7–8).
Hypocrisy is like whitewashed tombs—beautiful outside, corrupt inside (Matthew 23:27–28).
Liars have no place in the eternal city (Revelation 21:8, 27).
Peace,
anas
