Luke12:2

2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.

It is a Proverbial Expression, those, and Parabolical Expressions, may be applyed in several Cases, and to several Subjects; we have met with this before variously applyed, Matth. 10.26. Mar. 4.22. and in this Gospel, Ch. 8.17. Here it is applyed, as an Argument against Hypocrisy, or the concealing of naughty and Corrupt Hearts under the Vizor, and Disguise of demure Looks, or fair Conversation. In the Day of Judgment, Sinners shall walk Naked, and Men shall see their Shame; God will in that Day make known all the Secrets of Mens Hearts, to be sure the secrets of all their Hearts, whose Iniquities are not forgiven, and whose Sins are not covered.
