Matthew 15 (Part 1) :1-20 Confronting Meaningless Religion

[adelissahunsley]

My pastor gave a sermon on this topic 10 or so years ago and used this (rather humorous) illustration. One day a little girl was watching her mum make roast beef. She cut off the ends, wrapped it in string, seasoned it and set it in the roasting pan.

The little girl asked her mum why she cut off the ends of the roast. The mum replied, after some thought, that it was the way that her mother had done it.

That night the grandma came to dinner and the little girl and her mum went to her and asked why she had cut the end off of the roast before cooking. After some thought grandma replied, that was the way her mother had done it.

Now great grandmother was quite old and in a nursing home. But the little girl went with her mum and grandma to see her and again asked the question. The great grandmother looked at them a bit annoyed and said: “So it would fit in the pan, of course.”

"But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this defiles a person. For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander. These are what defile a person. But to eat with unwashed hands does not defile anyone.” (Matthew 15:18-20). Would be good to see who we are in Christ, amen! Let God test every spirit, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ, amen!
