Back To The Bible Canada With Dr. John Neufeld

Rituals are easy — it's the heart that's hard to clean. In this episode, Dr. John walks through Deuteronomy 23, exploring how ancient Israel's laws of ritual purity speak to four timeless areas of Christian integrity: worship, personal hygiene, money, and care for others. Drawing on Jesus' warning about cleaning "the outside of the cup," Dr. John challenges listeners to move beyond outward religious observance and pursue genuine inward holiness — where what we appear to be on the outside matches who we truly are on the inside.The Law and Holy Living: The laws of ancient Israel can feel distant and irrelevant to modern readers — but look closer, and you'll find they reveal something timeless about the character of God. In this series on Deuteronomy 18–26, Dr. John works through the detailed national laws given to Israel, uncovering what they teach us about justice, worship, and holy living — and pointing us to the one who came not to abolish the law, but to fulfill it.
