Psalms 50:15-16

Psalms 50:15-16. And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee and thou shalt glorify me. But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth?

There were, in those days, wicked priests who taught the people what they did not themselves practice, just as there are, in these days, men who because of their official position, have dared to stand up, and declare the gospel of Christ by which they were not themselves saved, and in which indeed, they were not even believers. Are they the men to preach the truth? Are they fit to teach others? Assuredly not: "Unto the wicked God saith, "What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth?"
