11 Luke - Inside Out

By Richard

In Luke 11: 37-41, an upset over the fact that Jesus didn’t wash his hands before the meal becomes a teaching moment for Jesus. He upsets the Pharisees even more by reminding them that while they spent inordinate amounts of time keeping the outside clean they were overlooking the most important – cleanliness of the heart. Following Christ comes down to the fact that it’s not the “show” but the “hidden” walk with God in the heart that is important.
