REPENT OR RUIN // Flee From Fake | Luke 12:1-3 | Jarrod Cochran

Nov 8, 2026  •  Jarrod Cochran

You can fool the people around you. But you cannot fool God.


In Luke 12:1–3, Jesus warns His disciples to beware the leaven of the Pharisees: hypocrisy.


Like yeast spreading through dough, hypocrisy doesn't stay contained. One compromise becomes another. One hidden sin becomes a pattern. Before long, the life we display publicly looks nothing like the life we live privately.


Jesus makes it clear: nothing hidden will remain concealed.


This message confronts the dangerous gap between appearing righteous and actually pursuing holiness. God isn't looking for polished performances or religious appearances. He calls us to repentance, integrity, and genuine transformation.


Who you are when nobody is watching reveals more than who you pretend to be when everyone is.


Stop hiding what God is calling you to confront.
