Proverbs 26

This first part of this chapter gives description after description, and example after example of the fool and how he/she is not just hurtful to him/herself but also to others. Within the second have of the chapter though it talks of those who are wicked on the inside but show no sign on the outside. The sad thing is that this is the way most Christians live. They are going through so much on the inside and have hidden sin in their lives but they keep it concealed, and hidden form the world. So my question is are we being real with our fellow brothers and sisters around us? Or are we living lives that are separated or divided?

Ummm. I'm kind of confused again. Like I don't understand what you're saying about how most Christians are or whatever. Do you mean they're wicked on the inside? and show no sign of it on the outside?

Well what i think was meant by that is that there are a lot of Christians out there that have hidden sin in their lives. I think that it mainly comes back to pride and that some Christians are afraid to admit struggles they are going through for fear that it might hurt their reputation in church. So not wicked to the point of no return but just have hidden stuff (sin) that they are afraid to share
