He who hates, disguises it with his lips, And lays up deceit within himself;
When he speaks kindly, do not believe him, For there are seven abominations in his heart;
Though his hatred is covered by deceit, His wickedness will be revealed before the assembly
Prov 26:24-26 (NKJV)
If someone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?
And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.
1 John 4:20-21 (NKJV)
Though his hatred is covered by deceit, his wickedness will be revealed before the assembly.
Our sin always comes out when we least expect it to and when we least want it to. Right when we think we have it covered, there it comes, right out there in the open. If you think you have something covered, and no one is ever going to learn what you may have in your heart against someone, think again.
It will come out. It always does.
