Our paragraph topic is: (Christ explains what defiles a man) Part 3.
The things that proceed out of the mouth come from the heart and it is they that defile a man. Christ spoke these words to his disciples and to the people that he had called to himself. He is the teacher. He is the instructor. He is the author of Truth that proceeds from the Father, and Truth is with him. Yet they did not understand. They did not know. They did not see the things that he spoke to them. Truth reached out to them but their minds and hearts were blocked by the things that filled their hearts. Christ is the truth that comes from the father and in him there is no lie, there is no deceit.
Yet do we find truth in his words today? Do we believe that he can not lie and his words are living truth? He speaks of things that do not make sense. He speaks of things that are difficult to comprehend. He stretches the imagination to the limits of understanding that perplex the mind. Yet he does not lie. He does not deceive. His words are truth. Then he spoke these words to his disciples: "For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, immorality, thefts, false witness,
blasphemies."
The Revelation: "Out of the heart come evil thoughts." Is this truth? How is it that thoughts come from the heart? We think with our minds and not our hearts? Or do we? Christ, the author of Truth through his Father, tells us that the heart thinks. Is this truth or is it symbolism? Out of the heart come thoughts??? Christ praised his father in a previous verse for hiding the things of knowledge and wisdom. " I praise thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and prudent, and didst reveal them to little ones."
Hear and understand!! The heart thinks. The heart believes. The heart knows. The heart is! For we are the children of God and through our hearts we are. Let not the heart think of evil. Let not the heart know adultery. Let not the heart seek murder. Let not the heart give false witness or think of theft, or immorality. For it is from these things that open the door of the heart to darkness and the good heart becomes evil.
Hear the revelation, hear the lesson. Hear and learn! Hear and understand! Truth seeks to know you. Truth seek to find you. Truth seeks to give you joy and peace. For from it and with it and through it comes the blessings of the spirit within you. Let it not be contaminated with evil. Let it not be defiled. Let it be cleansed with the living words of Christ. Fill it with the knowledge and truth that comes from the father and his blessing will flow unto you. His seed will be planted in you to grow and bring forth much fruit.
