Jesus is talking about the Pharisees here in Mathew, but could it be that this is applicable even in our day? Are we all heart and soul or could we be guilty of honoring God only with our lips? Am I a doer or just someone going through the motions, worshipping on Sunday and showing no signs of God’s love through the rest of the week?
Matthew 15:8-9
New International Version (NIV)
8 “‘These people honor me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
9 They worship me in vain;
their teachings are merely human rules.
but their hearts are far from me.
9 They worship me in vain;
their teachings are merely human rules.
