It Had To Be Said - What Defiles A Person? | Sermon Audio
On June 30, 2024, Pastor Jon Delger delivered a sermon from Mark 7:1-23, focusing on Jesus' teachings about what truly defiles a person. In this passage, Jesus confronts the Pharisees, who criticize His disciples for eating with unwashed hands, challenging their adherence to man-made traditions over God's commandments. Pastor Jon illustrated that the Pharisees mistakenly believed that external factors could defile a person, while Jesus emphasized that impurity comes from within, from a person's heart. He explained that true cleanliness before God requires a transformed heart, a change only possible through faith in Jesus Christ, who offers a new heart and true purification through His sacrifice. This sermon is part of the "It Had To Be Said" series, underscoring the impactful quotes of Christ.
