18 Jesus said to them, |Don't you understand? Don't you know that whatever goes into a person from the outside can't make him unclean? 19 It doesn't go into his thoughts but into his stomach and then into a toilet.| (By saying this, Jesus declared all foods acceptable.) 20 He continued, |It's what comes out of a person that makes him unclean. 21 Evil thoughts, sexual sins, stealing, murder, 22 adultery, greed, wickedness, cheating, shameless lust, envy, cursing, arrogance, and foolishness come from within a person. 23 All these evils come from within and make a person unclean.| Mark 7:18-23, God's Word Translation.
