Matthew 15:10-20

1.Respecting FALSE DOCTRINE, our Lord declares, that it is a duty to oppose it, that its final destruction is sure, and that its teachers ought to be forsaken.

• Do we not see here the duty of boldness in resisting false teaching?
• Do we not see again the duty of forsaking false teachers, if they will not give up their delusions?
• Do we not see, in the last place, the duty of patience, when we see false teaching abound?

2.Respecting the HEART OF MAN, our Lord declares in these verses, that it is the true source of all sin and defilement.

• Let it be a settled resolution with us, that in all our religion the state of our hearts shall be the main thing.
• Let it be a settled resolution with us to "keep our hearts with all diligence," all the days of our lives. (Prov. 4:23.)
