Hypocrisy (6)
And have we not all known what it is to find that, somehow, we have less to say to God when we are alone than when we are in the presence of others? It should not be so; but it often is.

The hypocrite deceives others while he lives, but deceives himself when he dies.https://www.challies.com/a-la-carte/a-la-carte-may-9-2024/
A good Christian makes gospel piety and moral equity kiss each other. Herein some discover their hypocrisy: they will obey God in some things which are more facile, and may raise their repute; but other things they leave undone.The Ten Commandments, 2
A modest dress is a very good thing, if it be the genuine indication of a humble heart, and is to instruct; but it is a bad thing if it be the hypocritical disguise of a proud ambitious heart, and is to deceive. Let men be really as good as they seem to be, but not seem to be better than really they are.Matthew Henry's Commentary
It is true that every believer has inconsistencies in his walk that he must confess and mourn over daily, but consistent patterns of unrepentant carnal behavior and hypocrisy will produce resentment in your children and especially in your wife.How to Lead Your Family
Hypocrisy can plunge the mind of a man into a dark abyss, when he believes his own self-flattery instead of God's verdict.
