Now I have done plenty of studying about man is a tripartite being in the image of God. We consist of Spirit/Soul/Body, and that is a great study area which taught me that, I am a spirit, I do have a soul, and I live in a body (temporarily). But I also saw something else in scripture. It speaks of, the Heart, in many places, and I thought, I have a handle on spirit/soul/body, but what exactly is this "Heart" that scripture speaks of. It is not the flesh heart, it's something else. What is it? I find this:
Proverbs 4:23
23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life..../KJV
And here it is in the NLT in more modern language:
4:23
23 Guard your heart above all else,
for it determines the course of your life..../NLT
So it determines the course of our life. Makes sense. People do and act upon what is in their heart. Right? Soo, this is important, wouldn't you agree?
What is your heart? Can anyone tell me?
