But Jesus told his disciples they would stand before kings and governors

And the gospel of the kingdom would be preached to all nations

This was fulfilled before AD 70, when the end (of the temple) came

But in another respect it still is being fulfilled as we follow in the steps of the holy Apostles, according to the life and word of our Lord

The gospel is the announcement that the king of the world is already come

And that he has been crucified by us miserable sinners and been raised for our justification

That we might be made holy and worthy to reign with him on the earth

We can take on anything if we are with Christ!

The World Will be returned to God and His Kingdom will have no end

Another thing I don't get is hypocrisy: Why does it matter?
The leftists etc. are always happy when they find out that someone who encouraged Christian morality turns out to have been unfaithful to his wife, or a pedo, or whatever it is. But that stuff really doesn't matter for what the person was arguing, does it? It seems like a form of ad hominem to me. It's not just moral matters, but that's probably the most relevant to this group

Hypocrite was that which Jesus insulted the most

Yes. The Left is hypocritical, it is an inherently self-defeating ideology. This is because the goal is the defeat of the self, it comes from the position that human life is ultimately worthless and the only thing that matters in humanity is it's collective physical affect on the world, which in all other forms beside Leftist is considered negative

It's a cult. A cult of Death. It's against Life, it's against Humans survival.
It is a Hivemind, who does not care if it dies so long as it carries out the will of it's Master

And it's Master is Satan, who desires the death of all mankind.

I fully agree. The more people we help realize this, the more we prevent from falling into his clutches.

Yes, Jesus did call Pharisees hypocrites, so it has to mean something. 🤔 In that case, it was a tool of Jesus insulting them righteously. The core of what they preached wasn't wrong, but their practice didn't live up to it. Jesus pointed out the discrepancy observing people would know the (((Elders))) were not really serving God, only pretending to.

So it's probably something where the motive matters more than the tactic. When lefties use it, it's to discredit the good message. When Jesus used it, it was to rightly discredit Pharisees.

Whenever the leftist references something remotely virtuous, it is to twist it and make it perverse

believing in a standard and falling short of it is not hypocrisy

it’s just falling to sin

hypocrisy is when you don’t even care about upholding the standard and just want to look like you are

in other words, hypocrisy is virtue-signalling

they also deceitfully used the law to attack their enemies

for example, the whole issue of "if your donkey fell in a ditch on the Sabbath you'd pull it out"

they knew works of mercy are permitted on the Sabbath; yet they dissembled to use it as an attack

@CPEGaebler yes, we should not imitate them in the way we rest on the Lord’s Day
