Is not what goes into a man defiles him, is what comes out…
“Is not what goes into a man defiles him, is what comes out of him that defiles him, according to the word of God. The words that proceed out of a man mouth comes directly from his heart. Our heart is what Gods use to judge us, not our sweet talk & false promises that we say to him with our mouth, to try to trick him into making him believe us to be a Saint! No man can outsmart the Lord with his words, a wise person knows that very well. Because he speak and communicate directly with our Heart beat & thoughts !!”
