Matthew 23:25-26 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. (26) Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.
The late Lewis Grizzard once wrote an article about buying a pair of Gucci shoes. One of his friends commented that Lewis in a pair of Gucci shoes was kind of like putting perfume on a hog. I have always liked that analogy.
So many times people will clean up, dress up, and pretty up the outside when the inside is still the same of sinful mess.
The only way we can clean up the inside our ourself is by asking Jesus to come in and be our Lord and Savior. He will take care of the filthy sin if we just let Him have control.
