Mark 7:20-23
And he said, “What comes out of a person is what defiles him. For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within, and they defile a person.”
The source in the world of defilement for a person is that person. We are the world which must be overcome that we might be more than conquerors.
It is not another that will keep us from heaven, but the natural man within. With the help of Jesus, we can break out of this earthly clay and enter the realm of God. We can become another, a new creature formed in the image of God.
He has taken our image for Himself while transforming our image to His within.
