• Hypocrisy: when private life differs strikingly from public life (v. 1-3).
• Fear of death and a physical grave vs. eternal death and hell (v. 4-5).
• Man is more valuable to God than birds, and God knows all about His birds (v. 6-7).
• Our willingness to align ourselves with Christ and Christ’s willingness to align himself with us (v. 8-12).
