These fools who haven't the slightest idea how to live the morals they espouse. These fools who proclaim themselves men of God, yet show not the slightest reverance to His word... Is it any different from a drunkard preaching temperance? A whore preaching modesty?

About This Quote

The quote is referring to fools who preach and speak out of their own minds and not what is truly in their hearts. They profess to be men of God but their actions show that they are not. They claim to be honest, yet they cheat and lie. They claim to love people but show no care for the welfare of others.
