In fact, hypocrisy leads the unbelieving world to dishonor God. While we may be tempted to exclude ourselves from the same problem, in reality many people wrongly trust in their baptism, Bible knowledge or Christian activities rather than faith in Christ alone, and Paul's goal is to urge all people to give up reliance on anything or anyone other than our Lord Jesus.
