Pope Francis on Friday
warned against people who want to appear "just and good" but who
are "all dirty" on the inside.
Their hearts contain "no substance", said the pope during
Mass at the Santa Marta residence where he resides.
"They lead a life of hypocrisy" and have "no truth", he
added.
This is why Jesus tells us "to pray in secret, to put on a
painted face when fasting so no knows and to not let your left
hand know what your right hand is doing when giving to the
needy", Francis said.
Those who "justify themselves by appearances" are merely
"soap bubbles", he concluded.
