DAILY HOMILIES #africans

Many of us (preachers) attempt to deceive people by pretending to be holy, but we are not. We are like David, who was quick to condemn the man in Nathan’s fable, or like the men who brought the woman caught in adultery to Jesus. We assume the moral high ground and we quickly pick stones against government officials, tax collectors, so-called sinners, but as Jesus would say, “Let him who has not sinned be the first to cast a stone.” When we honestly look inwards, we realise that even though we stand on the pulpit to preach, we are worse than our audience.
