Questions for Further Study or Group Discussion

  1. Read Mark 7:14-23. What does it mean to be defiled? Who is defiled? How? What do people without faith in Christ do with this defilement?
  2. Jesus speaks about various foods not defiling a person. What else in this life does not defile a person? In other words, what are some things Christians may commonly assume cause defilement?
  3. How do all of the things Jesus lists in verses 21-22 come out of the heart? How is the heart the “source-spring” of life?
  4. How can we renovate our hearts? What is our responsibility and what does God do? What role does the church have in helping one another renovate their hearts?
