“What goes into someone’s mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth, that is what defiles them.” Matthew 15:11
In order to have healthy bodies, we are often told to stay away from excessive fried foods, processed foods and sugary foods & drinks. Anything that compromises the ultimate functioning of body should be avoided. Alternatives such as baked, boiled or steamed foods are encouraged to maintain a health strive.
From a spiritual perspective, it’s not the what we intake through our mouth that causes the greatest problems, it’s what we say. What we say flows from the thoughts we nourished in our mind. If the thoughts are demeaning, filled with anger, dishonest and other defiling traits, the words we speak will resemble the thoughts. The inner contamination travels through our mouth pollutes our lives and those in close proximity.
