Isn’t it is helpful that the Bible gives us complementary positives and negatives that clarify what we are to do or not do? We CRAVE pure spiritual milk. It is commonly understood that this refers to the Word of God. But that doesn’t just mean that we must have a driving obsession to carry a bonded leather New Testament in the back pocket; that would be silly. No, we
desperately long to understand and do what the Word says!-
What do we NOT crave?
*all malice
*all deceit
*all hypocrisy
*all envy
*all slander.

Looking at the verses above, if we crave the one, we should equally have an aversion to the other, right? When we find these on the plate, our strong desire should be to push them away, so it would be beneficial to understand the meaning of these negatives.

Now, these may seem obvious to you, but if I have any takers, I would like to explore what it means to “rid yourself of all hypocrisy.”

What does that mean; what does it not mean? Please indulge me.
