"I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead." (Rev. 3:1) And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account." (Heb. 4:13) "The eyes of the LORD are in every place, Keeping watch on the evil and the good." (Prov. 15:3)

Luther E. Smith, a professor at Emory University, in a speech to students about living honestly, said, "'Faking it' for a class session is one thing, but it's so easy to find ourselves making 'faking it' a lifestyle. We 'fake it' with others. We 'fake it' with God. This summer I saw a bumper sticker that said: 'Jesus is coming. Look busy!'" (From Chronicle of Higher Education, Oct. 11, 1996).

Let us not make "faking it" a lifestyle because God has a perfect knowledge of all that we say and do.
