假冒为善，失去从神来的真实
在这里一直有一个问题，到底他们知不知道他们假冒为善？主说你走遍洋海陆地，换句话说你很有负担，到全地去传福音去，入了教却叫他们作地狱之子，换句话说，比你们更不好。因为你们多多少少还有一点从神来的真实。但你传出去了，你的门徒们就不一定有从神来的真实，却不知不觉变成一班没有实际，却只能喊口号的人。
使一个人改变归属，成为他们所属教派的人
我绝不相信，文士会说我是假冒为善的，法利赛人会说我是假冒为善。可是主耶稣对他们的话，你们是勾引一个人入教，使一个人改变归属。比如：我本来是浸信会的，现在我和这些人在一起。我本来是长老会的，现在我和这些人在一起。信仰没有改变，还是信耶稣，还是有耶稣，但这个归属改变了。
主责备他们勾引一个人入教。“勾引一个人入教”更好译作“使一个人改变归属(信仰)，成为他们所属教派的人”。主耶稣在这里说勾引。勾引是花很多功夫很多力气，把自己装饰过，就是我做一个东西，让我更有吸引力。
弟兄，基督徒不小心，会做很多东西。我们每一个人生活，都有我们的方式，各种不同的基督徒，也有各种不同的方式。但是主耶稣这里就说，你小心，你可以用你的方式说服一个人，但是你把人说服以后，他不一定有主。所以你叫他入了教了，做地狱的儿子，换句话说还是要受审判。他以为他得着了，结果没有得着。
不在基督之外有别的归属
我们要把人带到基督里，叫人有主，而不是把人带到一个生活方式里。我们根本不应该注意这些过于注意有主，注意得着主，注意享受主，注意主的同在，注意我们个个都是住在基督里的人。

To Make One Proselyte – Matthew 23:15
Being a Hypocrite and Losing the Truth from God
There has always been a problem here, did they really know that they were hypocrites? The Lord said that you had traveled the sea and the dry land. In other words, you were very burdened to preach the gospel to the whole world. But after some one became a believer, you made them the son of Gehenna. Namely, they were even worse than you because you still had more or less some truth from God. However, you spreaded the words, your disciples may not necessarily have the truth from God and they would unknowingly become a group of men who had no reality and could only shout slogans.
To Cause a Person to Change Their Affiliation and Become a Member of the Denomination to Which They Belong
I never believe that the scribes would say that I was a hypocrite, or Pharisees would say that I was a hypocrite. But what the Lord Jesus said to them was, you were trying to make one proselyte. For example: I’m originally a Baptist, and now I’m with this group of men. I was originally a Presbyterian, and now I’m with this group of men. The faith has not changed, I still believe in Jesus and still have Jesus, but my affiliation has changed.
The Lord rebuked them for seducing one into Christianity. “To seduce one into Christianity” is better translated as “to make one change their affiliation (belief) and become a member of the sect to which they belong”. The Lord Jesus was talking about seduction here. Seduction is spending a lot of time and energy to decorate oneself, i.e., I make something that makes me more attractive.
Brothers, Christians can do many things if they are not careful. Each of us has our own way, and various Christians also have various ways. But the Lord Jesus said here, be cautious. You may convince a person in your own way, but after you convince him, he may not necessarily have the Lord. Thus you make him join the religion group and become a son of Gehenna. In other words, he will still be judged. He thought he had gained it, but in the end he didn’t.
No Affiliation Other Than Christ
We want to bring people into Christ and give them the Lord, rather than leading them into a lifestyle. We should not pay more attention to these things than to have the Lord. Paying attention to gain the Lord and enjoy the Lord; paying attention to the presence of the Lord, and paying attention to the fact that each of us is a person who abides in Christ.
