One day Jesus’s disciples were told off by some people for not washing their hands before eating – but Jesus said to the critics that they were putting their own ideas before what was really important.

What really matters, he said, is not what goes into you when you eat but all the things that come out from you – it can be all sorts of bad things - theft and murder and envy and slander and so on.

Avoid all these things, he said, – and that’s what really God wants from you.
