Brazen Hypocrisy
John 13:2
Nothing in all the world is more corrupt or more callous than the heart of a hypocrite. There sat Judas at the table with the Son of God and his disciples. But he had already struck his deal with the Jews’ priests to betray the Saviour. — What brazen hypocrisy! Judas stands as a beacon to warn us of what deep corruption may be found in the hearts of very religious people. Still, we must not be overly disturbed when we find such hypocrites among God’s saints. Not all who are washed in the waters of baptism have been washed in the blood of Christ (John 13:10). — “They are not all Israel which are of Israel” (Romans 9:6).
