Hypocrites

Mat 16:3 MKJV
(3) And in the morning, Foul weather today; for the sky is red and gloomy. Hypocrites! You can discern the face of the sky, but you cannot see the signs of the times!

The Lord will judge us not for our experience, but for what we had access to. For instance, Jesus called the Pharisees hypocrites because they could not discern the signs of the times. Why? They had not claimed anything! Yet they accused him as men who had discernment but they never accessed this gift where He was concerned.

These men had no desire to see Jesus as Messiah, regardless of His claims. Jesus never blamed anyone for being careful. He never blamed anyone for asking questions. However, He has nothing good to say about willful ignorance. Willful ignorance is hypocrisy. It is the state of being critical of another while ignoring the same weaknesses within one's self.
