Appearances can be deceiving. People we

can fool others by acting one way, when in their heart, they are

totally opposite. The Bible warns in Matthew 23:27, “Woe

unto you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto

whited sepulchres, which appear beautiful outward, but are o**

within full...of all uncleanness.” Although students can fool

V ,W l

others by talking the “Christian” talk, God knows exactly what

is going on in the heart. He sees everything we do, and he

knows everything we think. That is why it is so important as

Christians we keep our focus toward heaven. When we are wCtwiMy

genuinely right with God on the inside, our outward body will t(U%

naturally reflect that. Clearwater Christian College is commit­

ted to excellence, academically and spiritually. However, even

if we conform to the rules, only God knows if our heart is con­

formed to His will. As Christians, our IN3I

should be an open book for others to read.
