Matthew 6:1-6 and 16-18 - Who Was That Masked Man-Pleaser?"

Jesus addresses hypocrisy in the Sermon on the Mount, focusing on our motives behind giving, prayer, and fasting. He warns against performing religious acts to gain human approval rather than pleasing God. True spirituality happens in secret, where only God sees our hearts. We must examine whether we would still practice our faith if no one ever knew about it. Living for an audience of One means being authentic in our devotion, removing our masks, and responding to God's love with genuine spiritual practices.
