Notes:

* Hypocrisy is the enemy of true discipleship

* Christ warned His own disciples about this

* Hypocrisy will be exposed

* Hidden sin doesn’t stay hidden forever

* It may stay hidden even for this earthly life–but still not forever

* Luke 11:37-54

* Signs of Hypocrisy

* Outward motions of religion, but no inward relationship

* Looking good, vs being godly
