Believers should listen to their hearts, as it is where God dwells and guides them. The heart is not the physical organ but the figurative core of one’s being. Misconceptions about Jeremiah 17:9 are clarified, emphasizing the importance of listening to one’s heart. Transformation of the heart is promised in the Bible, encouraging believers to trust in the Holy Spirit’s guidance.
Key Points
Defining the Heart
- [1:20] The heart is the figurative core of a person's being, the seat and center of human life, emotion, volition, and will.
- [2:04] The heart is the fountain and seat of thoughts, passions, desires, appetites, affections, purposes, and the understanding.
The Deceitful Heart
- [2:30] Jeremiah 17:9 states that the heart is "deceitful above all things and desperately wicked," but this is in the context of the sin of Judah.
- [3:09] The "deceitful and wicked heart" refers to the sin and unbelief that was written on the hearts of the people of Judah.
Hardened Hearts
- [5:51] The Bible provides examples of people with hardened, wicked, and deceitful hearts, such as the Israelites in the wilderness and the Pharisees.
- [9:12] Jesus rebuked the Pharisees for the evil in their hearts, and even the disciples struggled with hardened hearts at times.
The New Heart in Christ
- [26:04] Ezekiel 36:26 promises that God will give believers a "new heart" and a "new spirit" to replace the "stony heart."
- [27:08] This new heart of flesh allows believers to walk in God's statutes, keep His ordinances, and become His people.
Listening to the Purified Heart
- [30:45] The Bible encourages believers to listen to their hearts, which have been purified and made holy through faith in Christ.
- [55:53] The hearts of believers are now "unblamable in holiness" before God, and they can listen to the desires of their hearts, which are now aligned with God's will.
