Which is cleaner

After Luke 11:37-44 

A question for the ages:

which is cleaner,

the unwashed hands

or the unwashed heart?

Another way to ask it:

what are we more

concerned with, dirty 

hands or dirty heart? Or

what is more important,

to wash our hands or

to cleanse our hearts

of anger, lust, greed,

murder, desire, idolatry?

The man answered

the question two

millennia past, and

the answer is still

the same.
