Mark 7:14-19

14Then he called the crowd again and said to them, “Listen to me, all of you, and try to understand!

15Nothing that goes into a person from the outside can make him unclean. It’s what comes out of a person that makes him unclean.

16Let the person who has ears listen!”

17When he had left the people and gone home, his disciples asked him about this illustration.

18Jesus 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?

19It doesn’t go into his thoughts but into his stomach and then into a toilet.” (By saying this, Jesus declared all foods acceptable.)
