Contamination
The Jews had several Purification rituals for different cases of contamination. But Jesus said: "What contaminates the man is what is in the Heart, and what from the Heart rises to the lips and the head and corrupts the thought and the speech and contaminates the whole man (...)"[1]
In "The Gospel as Revealed to Me"
- What contaminates the man is what is in the Heart, and what from the Heart rises to the lips and the head and corrupts the thought and the speech and contaminates the whole man. It is from the Heart that come the bad thoughts, the murders, the adulteries, the fornications, the thefts, the false testimonies and the blasphemies. It is from the Heart that come the greed, the vicious inclinations, the prides, the envies, the angers, the exaggerated appetites, the guilty idleness. It is from the Heart that comes the incitement to all Actions.[2]
