Cry Wolf

I’m sure you are familiar with the term:
“Cry Wolf”
When someone raises a False Alarm

People can SAY things
That they don’t REALLY mean

It seems too harsh
To say that they have LIED
But in reality, they have

“These people draw near to Me
with their mouth,
And honor Me with their lips,
But their heart is far from Me.
And in vain they worship Me,
Teaching as doctrines the
commandments of men.”
(Matthew 15:8 – 9)

Another term is “deception”
When the words and actions
Do not line up with the
Intentions of a person’s heart

God KNOWS our true motives
We may deceive people
But we will NEVER deceive God

The Pharisees appeared to be
Very godly people

Many people today are like
The Pharisees
They LOOK good
Attend church regularly
And other such things

But their hearts
Their motives
Their worship
Their doctines
Their Laws
Are NOT of God

And everything they do
Is in VAIN…
For God is NOT their motive
Their hearts are hardened
Towards God

We need to ensure
That we are NOT those people
And to be wise and aware
That those kind of people
Are around us and among us

This is what Jesus said
Concerning people like this:
“Every plant which My heavenly Father
has not planted will be uprooted.
Let them alone.
They are blind leaders of the blind.
And if the blind leads the blind,
both will fall into a ditch.”
(Matthew 15:13 – 14)

Keep your eyes upon Jesus
Follow Him
Walk with Him and talk with Him
And He will keep you on the right path
He will keep you in the Way
