King Solomon was used of God to pen a book of wise proverbs to help govern the life of believers. One of these proverbs (4:23) says, “Keep (guard) your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life.” In this brief study, we examine a passage in Paul’s letter to the Colossians which provides three principles to help us guard our hearts (Col. 3:15-17).
These Bible messages entitled “Guard Your Hearts” were preached by Pastor Gregg Bing in 2021 during the morning worship services at Grace Bible Church in Fort Worth, TX.

The Parable of What Defiles a Man - 1
(Mark 7:1-13) We begin looking at the brief parable that Jesus told about what defiles a man by considering what led Him to speak this parable. Scribes and Pharisees came from Jerusalem to find fault with Jesus and could bring some kind of legal charge against Him. They complained that His disciples transgressed the tradition of the elders regarding the washing of hands before eating. Jesus responded by pointing out the hypocrisy of these wicked men who honored God with their lips, but whose hearts were far from Him.
