That is contradictory bible talk. In other places it spells out that certain foods are off limits and unclean. No offense isis, just putting this comment into context. Not that I care at all what it says in the bible. But I dislike seeing the waters muddied.
It certainly does matter what comes out of a person's mouth, but also what goes in, in my opinion. An individual is responsible for self in all aspects, I conjecture.
thanks for sharing, i didn't know that in other places "it spells out that certain foods are off limits and unclean"...despite having attended church practically every sunday until 18yrs of age, & attended church camps, i'm not rly familiar with the bible at all.
i only posted bc last night i was reading thru tilting book where Carla was talking about diet & read this:
JIM: Remember what Jesus said about diet?
Carla: Um . . . what did Jesus say about diet?
JIM: “Man is defiled by what comes out of his mouth, not what goes into it.” [6]
Carla: That’s true. He said that. Good one.
then i felt compelled to share it with matt before realizing verse was from matt. neat sync i thought.
