Characteristics of the Heart

The anger of the LORD will not turn back Until He has executed and performed the thoughts of His heart. In the latter days you will understand it perfectly.
(Jeremiah 23:30) NKJV

In the Bible the heart does a lot more thinking than our minds do. This runs counter to conventional medical wisdom about the brain and heart, but are we worried about running counter to convention?

Separation of Heart and Mind

The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
(Jeremiah 17:9) KJV

One aspect of the soul is the heart which is, among other things, our drive and motivation. Another aspect of the soul is the mind which is our ability to reason. Physically the heart is a pump that drives blood, the mind is a brain.

Down the Rabbit Hole

And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar. And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.
(Genesis 8:20-21) KJV

Mainstream science (SciPop) as a means to deny the existence of God is dead. True science is reclaimed as how we can understand absolute truth: God is love. Now we (that’s me and the Holy spirit) can prove it with Physics.

Our Heart of Imagination

He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
(Luke 1:51) KJV

We (that’s me and the Holy spirit) can imagine things. When we imagine things we see a world as if we were looking at it with our eyes. Since our eyes are in our head it’s natural to assume that our consciousness is also in our head.

A Clean Heart

Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me away from Your presence, And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.
(Psalms 51:10-12) KJV

The condition of our heart reflects the condition of our relationship with God. It’s manifested both spiritually and physically. God is good to them that have a clean heart, so how do we make our heart clean?

Heart and Soul

“Therefore you shall lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your soul, and bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes.
(Deuteronomy 11:18) NKJV

The soul is one of three aspects of life, patterned after the three aspects of the Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We’ve established the distinction between soul and spirit, and we have working definitions of both.

Defining the Soul

And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
(Mark 12:30-31) KJV

The soul encompasses the aspects of heart, soul and mind: our self-awareness. The mind gives us grief, sorrow and knowledge of the law: all things that require understanding.
