How about the other scriptures on the heart. Ezekiel 36:26 – “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.” 2 Corinthians 5:17 – “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” Psalm 51:10 – “Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.” Galatians 5:22-23 – The Spirit’s work in the heart produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Then Thiers these verses how can we trust in the lord with all our hearts of they are always wicked and deceitful Proverbs 3:5-6 – “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.” Psalm 37:4 – “Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.” (Why would he give us the desires of our hearts if we can’t ever trust them) And lastly about the heart it’s regenerated in the Holy Spirit John 7:37-38 (ESV) “On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out, ‘If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’” I can’t tell you how many times I have heard preached that we can’t trust our hearts as saved, sanctified, set free by the Holy Spirit believers, but I can trust sister or brother so and so… I feel like that verses is often used unknowingly as a form of manipulation. Makes one become so fearful that they can’t hear right. Lived a big chunk of my life under this ideology, fearing I was missing it or wrong and not moving out on what God wanted me to due to listening to others. Spiritual bypass is a real thing.
