Hypocrisy

"Why is it that people who go to church alot, are very Christian, belong to churches, get worse instead of better?' The answer is because they go through all the rites, all the motions, read the Bible, do everything; but they don't really love God or their neighbor." -- St. Theophan the Recluse

Lying

"Lying to others is bad, but sometimes, when you lie to others, you also end up lying to yourself. It may be possible to be forgiven for lying to others, but lying to oneself is especially tragic, because, if it is left unchecked, it will almost certainly lead to eternal separation from God. -- Wcrowe (talk) 18:42, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
