00:00Stop scrolling. One animal was declared unclean under God's law, and its name might surprise you.
00:07The pig. In Leviticus chapter 11, God forbade the Israelites from eating pork.
00:13The pig had split hooves, but did not chew the cud. Under the law, it was considered unclean.
00:20But the story doesn't end there. In Isaiah chapter 66, eating pork appears among the
00:26practices condemned in a warning about rebellion against God. Then comes a surprising turn.
00:33In the New Testament, Jesus teaches about what truly defiles a person. And in Acts chapter 10,
00:40Peter receives a vision that challenges his understanding of what is clean and unclean.
00:45Many Christians understand these passages to mean that the Old Testament dietary restrictions
00:50no longer apply to them. But here's the real lesson. It's not enough to appear clean on the
00:56outside while allowing corruption to grow within. Because God is not merely concerned with what
01:02enters your mouth, but with the condition of your heart.
