Sunday Scripture

Greetings my friends. It is Sunday March 08TH 2026, and this is the day that our LORD has made. Let us rejoice. Let us be glad in it. Let us celebrate this great new day of believing, following, trusting, loving, and being more like our Lord + Savior Jesus Christ. Let us love our neighbor as ourself.

Volume 9, Number 2, Edition 402
“Hypocrites In Church”

“I don’t go to church because of all of the hypocrites there.”

And of course my response to that would be – “Yes, and we have room for one more.”

There are hypocrites in and out of the church, and we are all hypocrites in various ways.

Yes – every church has those congregants / members / attendees who appear to be perfect in every way. They may even tell you that they are perfect – if they are pompous enough. If they don’t tell you then they will try to show you perfection – at least for those 90 minutes inside the church. Before and after that – you can’t tell them from the world. They are going to church, and they are leaving from church. They are leaving the church behind. They are not being the church. They are not bringing the church in everything they do and everywhere they go.

Hypocrites are in great abundance. It is not a church problem. It is a human problem – in and out of the church. We are all flawed. We are all sinners. We are all hypocrites. We are all in need of God. We are all in desperate need of His grace and mercy. True believers and followers of our Lord + Savior Jesus Christ know that. A true believer and follower is one 24/7 – even when nobody else is around.

I like seeing and hearing the same version of my brothers and sisters of my church family during the week away from our church building as I do on Sunday mornings, Tuesday evenings, and Friday evenings inside our church building. I like honesty. I like humility. I like being yourself – while getting closer to God – His Way and His Word.

There is no perfect church. There are no perfect people in the church. If you believe that you may have finally found that perfect church – then don’t go there. You’ll ruin it for everyone there.

My testimony is featured each week here on #SundayScripture – whether it’s part of a sermon, a testimony, or just me writing about the events of the past week. Hopefully it encourages you and inspires you to seek the Lord – and get closer to Him with each new day.

If you wish to learn more about the God I know – then stay tuned to #SundayScripture. The best is yet to come !

Thank you for reading my blog for this day, and may:

The LORD bless you, and keep you.
The LORD make His face shine upon you, and be gracious to you.
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. AMEN.
