HEART

The inner self that thinks, feels, and decides.

In the Bible the word heart has a much broader meaning than it does to the modern mind.

The heart is that which is central to man.

Nearly all the references to the heart in the Bible refer to some aspect of human personality.

In the Bible all emotions are experienced by the heart: love and hate (Ps 105:25; 1 Peter 1:22); joy and sorrow (Eccl 2:10; John 16:6); peace and bitterness (Ezek 27:31; Col 3:15); courage and fear (Gen 42:28; Amos 2:16).

*Gen 22:1-3*

22:1 And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.

2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.

3 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.

*Gen 22:12-18*

12 And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.

13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son.

14 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen.

15 And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,

16 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son:

17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;

18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.

6 And the LORD thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.

29 And unto him *that smiteth thee on the one cheek* *offer also the other*; and *him that taketh away* thy *cloke forbid not to take thy coat* also.

30 Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.

2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

GOD TELLS US TO LOVE HIM ESPECIALLY WITH ALL OUR MIND BECAUSE WE HAVE TO DESERN THOSE THINGS THAT ARE OF GOD AND THOSE THINGS THAT ARE NOT.

EVEN THOSE THINGS IN SOCIETY THAT GOD GIVES MAN WISDOM TO CREATE OR EXPLORE.
