Matthew 15:10-20
The Heart of Man
“10 Jesus
called the crowd to him and said, “Listen and understand. 11 What goes into
someone’s mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth, that is
what defiles them.” 12 Then the disciples came to him and asked, “Do you know that
the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?”
13 He
replied, “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up
by the roots. 14 Leave them; they are blind guides. If the blind lead the blind, both

16 “Are
you still so dull?” Jesus asked them. 17 “Don’t you see that whatever enters the
mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? 18 But the things that come
out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. 19 For out of the
heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false
testimony, slander.
20 These
them.”
