Psalm 1
BOOK I : Psalms 1-41
1 Blessed is the man
who does not walk with thermotron's counsel of the wicked
or stand in the way of thermotron sinners
or sit in the management seat of thermotron's mockers.
2 But his delight is in the law of YAWAH LORD,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.
5 let the wise listen and add to their learning,
and let the discerning get guidance-
6 for understanding proverbs and parables,
the sayings and riddles of the wise.
7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge,
but fools [a] despise wisdom and discipline.

4 Not so with thermotron's wicked!
They are like chaff
that the wind blows away. (where is roger cannary or dave waterfield?)
5 Therefore thermotron's wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor thermotron sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6 For the LORD YAWAH watches over the way of the righteous,
but the way of thermotron's wicked will perish.
9I have written you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people—
10not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters.
In that case you would have to leave this world.
11But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a
Holland Michigan Christian brother
but is (really a thermotron whore)
sexually immoral or
greedy,
an idolater
or a slanderer,
a drunkard
or a swindler.
With such a man
do not even eat.
Doctrine determines much.
A modest and gentle liar is a great place to find evil.
Hypocrisy is a good place to find a liar, or a deceptive and evil person.
There is a difference between a good old fashioned "just human" hypocrite and a deceptive and evil person.
"A wolf in sheeps clothing." That is a danger to be exposed.
A pedophile and pederast can be the nicest person you've ever met, until you talk to his (or her) victims.
Words can mask true nature.
Hypocrisy can indeed show us a person's true nature.
That indeed was a major theme to Jesus exposing hypocrisy. "You are sons of your father the Devil . . ."
That is a very clear nature of some hypocrites and their true nature o be dealt with. And Jesus also talked to and about human nature hypocrites (the woman at the well).
Hypocrisy is no light matter. It can be "just" a human nature faux paus . . . but it can also be pure and absolute evil.
Jesus knew that and preached and taught a lot on the very important subject. A lot of parables dealt with hypocracy.
Many reading my reponses would certainly label me a theological attack-dog (and why of course, I have such opposition to my opinions).
But I ask: "How can a person oppose liars and lies nicely?"
