Listen "Why Do Hypocrites Fill the Church? Pastor David Dorn"
Episode Synopsis
In this sermon, Pastor David addresses the challenging question of why hypocrites fill the church. He begins by acknowledging his own hypocrisy—times when his actions don't align with his preaching—and suggests most Christians share this struggle. The problem, Pastor David explains, isn't that Christians sometimes fail to live up to their beliefs, but rather when they refuse to recognize this failure.Jesus reserved His harshest words for religious leaders who maintained a righteous appearance while harboring corrupt hearts, as seen in Matthew 23 where He repeatedly calls them "hypocrites" and "whitewashed tombs." Pastor David reminds us that "the church isn't filled with perfect people but people being made perfect," and offers the "Jesus Prayer" as a humble acknowledgment of our need for mercy: "Lord Jesus, Son of the Living God, have mercy on me a sinner."We invite you to connect with us: https://linktr.ee/faithmcrichmondtx
