Thoughts and intents proceed out of the heart, and we use these as two categories into which we separate the various characteristics of the heart that we find in scripture.
Out of the Heart
Heart Condition
Consider the cause and effect of heart condition. For example, which came first: smoking? or heart disease? What if heart disease is the result of a poor relationship with God, and that's the reason why we smoke?
Spiritual Possession
We may know that bipolar disorder, for instance, is caused by a chemical imbalance, but what causes the chemical imbalance? Who's to say that the causes aren't spiritual entities who are chemical compounds in vapor form?
Into the Heart
There's spirit, like Oxygen (O), and then there are Spirits, like the Holy Spirit (ΩO). There are also evil Spirits. Spirits are vaporous molecules or compounds which are inhaled, dissolve in the blood, then enter our heart.
Return With all Your Heart and Soul
When we fall aside and loose our way we have a prescription for how to find it. Once again we have to acknowledge that God is who he claims to be, and do it with that part of our being which is truly us: our heart and soul.
Set Your Heart and Soul to Seek the Lord
Why are we here? Is there a reason why we exist? If there's a reason, is there a purpose too?These are forms of what what we may euphemistically call the ultimate question to life, the universe and everything.
Written on Our Hearts
Could it be that we're all walking around with the Bible as non-coding DNA in every cell of our bodies? It's within the realm of possibility in Matty's Paradigm. No one has an excuse to not believe in God. No one.
We are Without Excuse
Most people choose to believe the popular science (SciPop) paradigm because they want to relegate God to irrelevant or optional, so that they can live immoral lives with no guilt or fear of judgement. It doesn't work.
God has Shown it to Us
Our conscience is why we experience guilt. We don't have to be told when we've done something wrong: we know. We may act like it doesn't matter but we still know that we did something wrong because of guilt.
Guilt
We can all relate to the definition of guilt. We may feel guilt, a feeling of deserving blame for offenses, but the reason why we feel it is because of the fact of having committed a breach of conduct. It is a fact that we're all sinners.
