“This people draweth nigh unto Me with their mouth, and honoreth Me with their lips; but their heart is far from Me” (Matt. 15:8).
Could our text be true of any of us, as it was with Israel when Isaiah (29:13) spoke it and when our Lord quoted it to the Jews of His day upon earth? We live in a day when there is much profession of lip, but little godliness of life. Churchanity has taken the place of Christianity in many quarters. The name of the Lord is often heard, but the manifestation of Him in the life is too little seen, for “they say, and do not.” Such “profess that they know God; but in works they deny Him.” Assuredly, “my brethren, these things ought not so to be.” We who know the Saviour “have received mercy … [and ought to] have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth, commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.” May it not be true of us that “they hear Thy words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they show much love, but their heart goeth after their covetousness.” So “be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.”
Professing to know the Lord Jesus,
Yet living for time and for men,
What will it mean when we see Him
Whose blood has redeemed us from sin?
