The impure claim they know God and are pure. The impure teach that "all things are pure to the pure" (Ti.1:15) or that "all things are lawful" (1Cor.6:12). Such teachers don't know God; or if they do, their knowledge is impure, defective, destructive.
Many Christians erroneously conflate this line of Pauline thought with the line of Christ about how "there is nothing that enters a man from the outside that can defile him" (Mk. 7:18) which the Apostle's understood to be a "parable" (Matt. 15:15). They knew it was a parable since they were already forbidden from thinking Christ would abolish the dietary law (Matt. 5:17,19). At length they learned that we are free from Talmudic hand washing traditions (Matt 15:20), and that we must not let such men use the empty deceit of "philosophy" or the "tradition of men" (Col. 2:8) / "commandments and doctrines of men" (Col. 2:22) to "judge" (Col.2:16) us for how we celebrate Christ in the Sabbath which is His very "shadow" because the Sabbath signifies a greater reality still "to come" (Col. 2:17).
"DO NOT BE DECEIVED" (1 Cor. 6:19). ALL THINGS ARE **NOT** PURE TO THE PURE. ALL THINGS ARE **NOT** LAWFUL. Such notions will not "help" you but will enslave you "under the power" (1 Cor. 6:12) of "false teachers" (2Pet. 2:1) who are "slaves of corruption" (2Pet. 2:19). Such "slaves of corruption" "promise liberty" but they bring their students "into bondage" (2Pet. 2:19) by turning them away from the "holy commandment" (2 Pet. 2:21).
Jesus did not abolish a jot or tittle of the Law. You are banned from thinking or teaching He did. If you misunderstand Hebrews or others texts, and presume to teach that "all things are pure to the pure" and "all things are lawful" then you are "DECEIVED" and should refrain from teachers for your judgement will be more severe (James 3:1).
In conclusion: "DO NOT BE DECEIVED" (1 Cor. 6:19). All things are NOT lawful. Law is required to define what is "unrighteous." "The unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God" (1 Cor. 6:9) because all things are NOT lawful in God's kingdom but the unrighteous live like "all things are lawful" as if impurity is pure for them, but it is not.
If you teach that "all things are lawful" or "pure for the pure" then be rebuked in the name of Christ and be silent for the sake of your own soul !
