So It's a SIN to Wash Your Hands before You Eat?
« on: January 30, 2014, 12:46:55 pm »
I hope not, but that's kinda the message Jesus gives when He defends his disciples against the Pharisees' accusation that the eateth with defiledst hands-eth! (where He replies with His 'it's not what goes into a man, but what comes out that defileth')

Yeah Jesus, but what kind of kingdom is it if everybody eats with grubby hands?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------That's what a Pharisee might say today. You now have the chance to respond as my mentor Jesus-of-Joseph would, and I pray that you will!

The point Jesus is obviously making is that observing ceremonies and traditions are not what keeps one from becoming defiled.Eating without preforming a hand purification ceremony is not a sin!

Google JediJohnnie and May the Force be with you!
