“WHAT FIRES JESUS UP?” SERIES
JESUS IS FIRED UP ABOUT HYPOCRISY
Matthew 23:1-36
Introduction –
JESUS IS FIRED UP ABOUT HYPOCRISY!
Let’s look at seven habits of ‘highly hypocritical people:’
1. They make salvation as COMPLICATED as possible.
2. They get what they need from people even if it HURTS others.
3. They break their PROMISES.
4. They make a big deal out of little things and IGNORE the things of a more important nature.
5. They are concerned about the EXTERNAL not the INTERNAL.
6. They look good to OTHERS no matter what the cost.
7. They pretend to be BETTER than others no matter what the evidence.
HOW TO WIN OVER HYPOCRISY:
1. Fear the FUTURE (HELL)
2. Hear the MESSENGER (REPENT)
3. Come to the SAVIOR (INTIMACY)
