Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sermons Preached in Rugby School Chapel in 1867-1869 I do not mean this afternoon to speak of the immediate purpose of these remarkable words, but of one of the general principles which lie behind them, and a principle of which there are several other illustrations in the New Testament, and which we recognise as a commonplace in morals. The contrast here is plain enough: it is between inner things and outer things. There is a perpetual temptation to ascribe a weight to the latter which does not belong to them; and in spite of our seeing the absurdity of this we slip into the same mistake repeatedly, and repeatedly need to have recalled to us the truth that man´s life in all respects, in its happiness, in its power, in its purity, is determined by what is within, not by what is without. The Pharisees laid great stress on what a man ate, and maintained that to eat an unclean thing was defiling. Our Lord teaches that purity is hurt by what comes from within, and by that alone.
