Matthew 15:17-20
17
Don't you understand that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the belly, and then out of the body?
18
But the things which proceed out of the mouth come out of the heart, and they defile the man.
19
For out of the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual sins, thefts, false testimony, and blasphemies.
20
These are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashed hands doesn't defile the man."
