UNWASHED HANDS



JESUS IS NOT INTO THE TRADITION BUSINESS, HE IS IN TO SOUND DOCTRINE AND THE WAY CHILDREN RESPECT THEIR PARENTS
 Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?   He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.  For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
 And he said unto them, ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. 10 For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death: 11 But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free. (Mark 7: 5-9)
You see people forget about the Commandments of God and practicing tradition, believing that tradition can give them sound salvation. Let me tell you who are doing this, the word of God is the only channel to heaven through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Touching the  disrespecting section of this chapter where Jesus say  children who curse parents shall die the death- I believe it is happening now because today’s generation has no respect for their parents and they are dying prematurely. Children, love and respect your parents and you will live a long happy, and healthy life.
