Key Scripture: John 8:32 - "Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

INTRODUCTION
In today's world, a false narrative is being promoted under the guise of justice and equality. This narrative is not rooted in righteousness but in deception, self-interest, and hypocrisy. Hypocritical racism is being paraded as a means of gaining power, wealth, and control over the masses. Those who engage in this deception claim to be victims, yet they are the ones fueling division and strife among people. They cry out for justice while practicing corruption. They accuse others of oppression while they themselves sit in positions of excessive privilege and wealth.
The agenda of hypocritical racism is not about healing or unity; it is about manipulation, destruction, and rebellion against God's divine order. Those who promote it are not genuinely oppressed, but rather, they are consumed by their own greed and thirst for dominance. As believers, we must discern the times and reject the spirit of deception. We are called to live in righteousness and uphold the truth of God's Word.

THE TRUE NATURE OF HYPOCRITICAL RACISM
Proverbs 11:9 - "With their mouths the godless destroy their neighbors, but through knowledge the righteous escape."
Hypocritical racism is a mask worn by those who wish to maintain power through division. They create an illusion of oppression while enjoying lives of luxury and abundance. This deception is a tool used by the enemy to sow discord among the people of God. The Bible warns against such hypocrisy and calls us to stand in truth and integrity.
The ones who promote this agenda have abandoned righteousness. They manipulate the emotions of the masses, painting themselves as victims while being the very perpetrators of injustice. Their goal is not to bring harmony but to instigate chaos. As believers, we must not be fooled by their deceitful tactics but instead walk in the wisdom and discernment that comes from the Holy Spirit.

GOD'S DESIGN FOR UNITY
Galatians 3:28 - "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."
God did not create people to be at war with one another based on race or background. He created all people in His image and desires unity among His children. The world, however, thrives on division because it is ruled by sin. The spirit of racism, whether hypocritical or direct, is an enemy of God’s kingdom.
The true believer does not see race as a tool for advantage or oppression but understands that in Christ, we are all equal. Those who seek to promote racial divisions are not walking in the Spirit of God but in the spirit of deception. They use race as a weapon for personal gain rather than as a means to glorify God.

THE DANGER OF BEING DECEIVED
2 Timothy 3:13 - "While evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived."
Those who engage in hypocritical racism believe that they are securing power for themselves, but in reality, they are walking the path of destruction. The riches and influence they accumulate will not save them from the judgment of God. Their deceit will be exposed, and their downfall will be great.
Believers must guard their hearts and minds against the lies of the world. The media, government, and certain institutions will attempt to convince us that division is necessary for progress. However, we must remember that division is the work of the enemy, not of God. We are called to unity in righteousness, not in deceit.

A CALL TO RIGHTEOUSNESS
Isaiah 1:17 - "Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow."
As followers of Christ, we must reject the hypocrisy of the world and stand firm in God's truth. This means not allowing ourselves to be swayed by emotional manipulation or false narratives. Instead, we must seek justice through righteousness, not through deception.
We must pray for discernment and ask God to guide us in His ways. We must also expose lies wherever they are found and speak truth boldly. The world will hate us for this, but we must remain steadfast, knowing that we serve a God of justice and truth.

SUMMARY
Hypocritical racism is a tool of deception used to divide and control. Those who promote it are not victims but manipulators seeking power. God’s desire is for unity among His people, and He calls us to reject all forms of deceit and walk in truth. Believers must remain discerning and committed to righteousness, refusing to be swayed by the lies of the world.

CONCLUSION
We are living in times where deception is rampant, and many are being led astray. The only way to stand firm is to remain rooted in God's Word. Hypocritical racism is just one of many tools the enemy uses to create division and chaos. As the body of Christ, we must rise above these worldly deceptions and walk in the light of truth.

FINAL WORD OF ENCOURAGEMENT
Ephesians 6:13 - "Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand."
The battle we face is spiritual, and only through God’s power can we overcome. Do not fear the lies of the enemy, for God has already given us the victory through Jesus Christ. Walk boldly in truth and remain steadfast in righteousness.
