God Cares About The Real You

Jamaal Williams

14 The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, were listening to all these things and scoffing at him. 15 And he told them, “You are the ones who justify yourselves in the sight of others, but God knows your hearts. For what is highly admired by people is revolting in God’s sight.

16 “The Law and the Prophets were until John; since then, the good news of the kingdom of God has been proclaimed, and everyone is urgently invited to enter it. 17 But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one stroke of a letter in the law to drop out.

18 “Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and everyone who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery.

Luke 16:14-18 

When the mask comes off, grace goes to work. 

  1. God Sees the Heart (Luke 16:14–15)
    • The Pharisees scoffed at Jesus, but He exposed their inner motivations.
    • God sees what others don’t — the curated self vs. the real self.
    • Idols that keep us hiding: approval, control, performance, comfort.
  2. God’s Word Is Not a Loophole (Luke 16:16–17)
    • The Pharisees misused Scripture to justify sin and protect power.
    • Jesus calls us to let Scripture transform, not conceal.
    • Knowing Bible verses ≠ knowing the heart of the King.
  3. Faithfulness Over Filters (Luke 16:18)
    • Jesus confronts the misuse of divorce laws as a loophole.
    • Faithfulness reflects God’s own character — sacred, not disposable.
    • Grace for the broken, safety for the abused, and an invitation to integrity.
  4. Application
    • Come clean to the Lord — He sees you fully and still loves you.
    • Invite sacrificial friends in — honesty is the path to healing.
    • Drop the act — God already sees and He still wants you.
