• Have you ever exaggerated your good deeds to others?
• Do you feel irritated when others receive praise? 
• Do you turn your interactions and conversations in a direction that is more likely to bring you praise?
• Is gaining popularity and name, your motive to serve God and others?
• Do you feel bad when people don't appreciate your service?
 
Answering yes to the above questions would mean the influence of hypocrisy in your life. Hypocrisy is the pretension to qualities, which one does not have. Hypocrisy is the contradiction between thoughts and words— keeping something in mind, saying and acting something else. It is a difference between life inside home and outside.
 
In Mt 23rd chapter, we are told that hypocrites `act' desiring public applause. They give undue importance to the external things than to the internal life. They act as though they are nice to others but in their hearts they set traps for them.
 
By pretending to be what they are not, hypocrites imprison themselves. They lie. They practice deception. In fact, they bear false witness against themselves. They are afraid to step out and show their true selves. 
Jesus did not say, "Woe unto you, adulterers…thieves… murderers,” but He repeatedly pronounced, "Woe unto you, hypocrites."
 
Hypocrisy is such a grave sin. Hypocrisy is a form of false religion when people draw near to God with their lips but their hearts are far from him. 
The earlier we understand our hypocrisy and sooner we repent, better will be our Christian life
 
Keeping closer relationship with God, Practising secret spirituality, being open with others and keeping good part of our walk in low visibility would help to keep hypocrisy under control.

Saying Yes Jesus:
Many people believe they are Christians because they were born in a Christian culture, go to Church regularly, try to do their best, or live a good life. However, the Bible teaches that these things cannot make you a Christian. You become a Christian by taking the following two important steps:
1. Acknowledge that you (along with all people) have sinned and fallen short of God’s standards.

2. Personally believe that Jesus Christ, who was God in human flesh, died for your sins on the cross and rose again. 1 Corinthians 15: 3 – 4
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Corinthians+15%3A+3+–+4&version=NIV;ERV-TA
You may express your belief through prayer, asking Jesus to come into your life, and receiving Him as God’s gift to you. John 1: 12; Romans 6: 23 and Revelation 3: 20

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation+3%3A+20&version=NIV;ERV-TA

For it is by grace you have been saved through faith…it is the gift of God not by works, so that no one can boast. Ephesians 2: 8 – 9

Walk with the LORD Jesus and proclaim Him wherever He leads!
