About fifteen years ago I was driving home at night and I needed a snack. It was late, so I drove through Krystal’s and bought two Krystal Chicks and a sweet tea. I bit into the first one and thought that I tasted mayonnaise. That was curious. I didn’t think that Krystal put mayonnaise on their sandwiches. So, at the next streetlight, I looked at the sandwich and noticed that the chicken was raw on the inside. Now I can handle a medium rare steak, but I can’t handle raw chicken at all! The chicken fillet looked fine on the outside, but it was cold and raw on the inside! Bakers use a toothpick to test the inside of their cakes. A cake may look done on the outside, but it must be done on the inside too. Hey, what about your spiritual life? You may look like a fine Christian on the outside, but are you a fine Christian on the inside too? Jesus said in Matthew 23:28, “… ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.”
