Mark 7:22

Defilement From Within

²¹ Because from inside, from the heart of men, come evil thoughts and unclean pleasures, ²² The taking of goods and of life, broken faith between husband and wife, the desire of wealth, wrongdoing, deceit, sins of the flesh, an evil eye, angry words, pride, foolish acts: ²³ All these evil things come from inside, and make the man unclean.
