Sermon 1: The Hypocrisy of a Divided Heart

Summary:

In the first message of The Devil’s Christians series, we explore the dangers of living with a divided heart. Hypocrisy, claiming devotion to Christ while secretly pursuing personal desires, opens the door for the enemy to use us against God's purposes. The sermon reflects on biblical examples like Judas Iscariot and the Pharisees, exposing how divided hearts harm our spiritual lives and weaken the church.

Key Scripture:

Matthew 7:21-23 (NIV) – "Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven."

Reflection Questions:

1. Is your heart fully devoted to God, or are you pursuing personal gain while pretending to serve Him?
2. What steps can you take to ensure your devotion to Christ is genuine?
