In our passage for this event, Jesus is challenged again because of something His disciples don\u2019t do, and in Jesus\u2019 response, we get the picture He was perhaps a little irritated at these religious leaders, but also that Jesus had a higher opinion of God\u2019s law than these religious leaders.<\/p>\r\n<p>Let\u2019s read this event and see what we can learn. Our passage is found in Mark\u2019s gospel, chapter 7, and we will read it from the Contemporary English Version. Starting in verse 1, Mark tells us:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>1\u00a0<\/sup>Some Pharisees and several teachers of the Law of Moses from Jerusalem came and gathered around Jesus.\u00a0<sup>2\u00a0<\/sup>They noticed that some of his disciples ate without first washing their hands.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>3\u00a0<\/sup>The Pharisees and many other Jewish people obey the teachings of their ancestors. They always wash their hands in the proper way before eating.\u00a0<sup>4\u00a0<\/sup>None of them will eat anything they buy in the market until it is washed. They also follow a lot of other teachings, such as washing cups, pitchers, and bowls.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>5\u00a0<\/sup>The Pharisees and teachers asked Jesus, \u201cWhy don\u2019t your disciples obey what our ancestors taught us to do? Why do they eat without washing their hands?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Before continuing to discover what Jesus says in response to this, I want to draw our attention onto this question being a spiritual question more than a health question. <strong>While the laws given through Moses encompass not only spirituality, but health, legalities, and more, at this point in the Jews history, everything was being given a disproportionate level of spiritual significance.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>I will be among the first to say that there is likely spiritual significance in more parts of my life and habits that I even begin to realize. However, with that said, some instructions have less to do with spiritual health directly and more to do with physical health. I don\u2019t know if these disciples did not ever wash their hands, or if these disciples didn\u2019t wash their hands in whatever way was spiritually significant in the minds of these legalistic Jews.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, Jesus\u2019 answer draws our attention not only on His heart, but also onto a pretty significant spiritual truth as well. Continuing in verse 6:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>6\u00a0<\/sup>Jesus replied:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>You are nothing but show-offs! The prophet Isaiah was right when he wrote that God had said,<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>\u201cAll of you praise me<br>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0with your words,<br>\r\nbut you never really<br>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0think about me.<br>\r\n<sup>7\u00a0<\/sup>It is useless for you<br>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0to worship me,<br>\r\nwhen you teach rules<br>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0made up by humans.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>8\u00a0<\/sup>You disobey God\u2019s commands in order to obey what humans have taught.\u00a0<sup>9\u00a0<\/sup>You are good at rejecting God\u2019s commands so that you can follow your own teachings!\u00a0<sup>10\u00a0<\/sup>Didn\u2019t Moses command you to respect your father and mother? Didn\u2019t he tell you to put to death all who curse their parents?\u00a0<sup>11\u00a0<\/sup>But you let people get by without helping their parents when they should. You let them say that what they own has been offered to God.\u00a0<sup>12\u00a0<\/sup>You won\u2019t let those people help their parents.\u00a0<sup>13\u00a0<\/sup>And you ignore God\u2019s commands in order to follow your own teaching. You do a lot of other things that are just as bad.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>14\u00a0<\/sup>Jesus called the crowd together again and said, \u201cPay attention and try to understand what I mean.\u00a0<sup>15-16\u00a0<\/sup>The food that you put into your mouth doesn\u2019t make you unclean and unfit to worship God. The bad words that come out of your mouth are what make you unclean.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>17\u00a0<\/sup>After Jesus and his disciples had left the crowd and had gone into the house, they asked him what these sayings meant.\u00a0<sup>18\u00a0<\/sup>He answered, \u201cDon\u2019t you know what I am talking about by now? You surely know that the food you put into your mouth cannot make you unclean.\u00a0<sup>19\u00a0<\/sup>It doesn\u2019t go into your heart, but into your stomach, and then out of your body.\u201d By saying this, Jesus meant that all foods were fit to eat.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>20\u00a0<\/sup>Then Jesus said:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>What comes from your heart is what makes you unclean.\u00a0<sup>21\u00a0<\/sup>Out of your heart come evil thoughts, vulgar deeds, stealing, murder,\u00a0<sup>22\u00a0<\/sup>unfaithfulness in marriage, greed, meanness, deceit, indecency, envy, insults, pride, and foolishness.\u00a0<sup>23\u00a0<\/sup>All of these come from your heart, and they are what make you unfit to worship God.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>In this lengthy response to this challenge, Jesus calls out the Pharisees and other religious leaders for placing their own rules above God\u2019s direct instructions. While I\u2019m confident that the religious leaders believed both sets of rules were important, in any place where these rules conflicted, they minimized God\u2019s law in place of their customs. While some of what God has said could be seen as unpopular and potentially illegal in our world today, God didn\u2019t share His laws as optional from an eternal perspective.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, the biggest portion of Jesus\u2019 response comes in contrasting what makes you fit for worship from what is simply a smart thing to do for your health. However, one phrase in this passage stood out to me as we read it. This phrase is found at the end of verse 19: \u201c<strong>By saying this, Jesus meant that all foods were fit to eat.<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Reading this translation makes me think that all foods are equal, but some of the other translations we regularly pull from frame this phrase better in my mind. Both the New American Standard Bible translation and the New International Version emphasize Jesus\u2019 declaration here that all foods are clean. I can understand why these translators may have chosen to frame this idea as being fit to eat, but it might have been better to say that Jesus simply reframes all foods as spiritually clean.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, Mark\u2019s gospel is attributing a meaning to Jesus message that I don\u2019t see. Perhaps the original language has a better connection, but Jesus is focused more on spiritual cleanness and fitness for worship and how our food doesn\u2019t change our status or our fitness in God\u2019s eyes. I don\u2019t see Jesus telling us that all foods are now permissible to eat, because history, logic, and any reasonable dietician will tell you that different foods have different health benefits. Some foods are simply better than others, and some types of food should be avoided.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Jesus\u2019 message is that our food doesn\u2019t affect God\u2019s response to our worship. Jesus does not hint or state that all things that go into our mouths are equal from a health perspective.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Instead, Jesus emphasizes that what comes out of our mouths comes from our hearts, and what comes out of our mouths makes us unclean. The things that come out of our mouths reveal our hearts. We could also say that the things we share on social media reveal our hearts as well. In today\u2019s era, our \u201cvoice\u201d extends to both what we say and what we write and share. <strong>What we choose to communicate to others reveals our heart.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>God doesn\u2019t view our online lives and our offline lives as different. God sees everything we do and Jesus tells us here that what we do is an extension of our hearts.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>After leaving the crowd and entering the house with the disciples, Jesus reemphasizes the truth that <strong>our hearts affect how fit we are to worship God.<\/strong> This also strongly suggests that <strong>our worship to God might not be accepted based on the state of our heart.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>While it is true that our food affects our health, and our health will ultimately affect our life, which includes our ability to worship, <strong>our food does not affect the spiritual state of our heart or God\u2019s love for each of us when we come to Him in worship.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>As we come to the end of another podcast episode, here are the challenges I will leave you with:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>As I always challenge you to do, continue intentionally seeking God first in your life. Don\u2019t let this passage be a license to ignore what you put into your mouth, but let it be a challenge to be extra aware of what comes out of your mouth, and to be extra aware of what you communicate to others, whether this communication uses your vocal cords, your pen, or even your computer, tablet, or phone. What you say and share with others reveals the state of your heart, and the state of your heart reveals how fit you are to worship God.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Also, continue to pray and study the Bible for yourself. I don\u2019t know of any better way to help clean and restore your heart than through heartfelt prayer, and studying God\u2019s truth in the pages of the Bible. These spiritual habits have given men and women a solid spiritual foundation for centuries, these spiritual habits can strengthen our spiritual lives, and these spiritual habits have the power clean our hearts as well. Don\u2019t simply assume the Bible says something because you heard it from a friend or read it on the internet. Choose to study it out for yourself because if for no other reason than your eternity depends on it!<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>And as I end every set of challenges by saying in one way or another, never stop short of, back away from, chicken out of, or abandon where God wants to lead you to in your life with Him!<\/strong><\/p><\/div><\/div>\r\n<p><strong>Flashback Episode:<\/strong> \r\nYear in Mark &#8211; Episode 17: When challenged by some religious leaders about His disciples&#8217; lack of an action, discover How Jesus viewed our food in relation to our spiritual cleanliness.
