Gospel of Matthew - Matthew 15:1-20 - Jesus Rebukes the Pharisees and Scribes - It's Not What Goes Into the Mouth but What Comes Out of the Heart - Prog 54
Description
Our study in Matthew now moves into chapter 15.
Dr. Mitchell will be explaining the first 20 verses.
Dr. Mitchell brings out the Lord's rebuke to the Pharisees and scribes for their formalism, their traditions because it nullified the very Word of God. He applies this truth to today's ecclesiastical leaders who change the meanings of the precious words of Scripture. So, let's stick with the Words of Christ rather than the man made traditions of religion.
Jesus next compares the difference between outward profession of the lips and inward motivation of the heart. He deals with integrity of one's life and faith.
He then differentiates between what goes into the stomach and what comes out of the heart.
This speaks of the defiling motivations of the human heart as found in verses 18-20.
Here is Dr. Mitchell on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, Matthew 15:1.
