Giving the Heart to God: A Perversion of the Gospel (P. Wilson)Proverbs 23:26
Scriptures: Proverbs 23 Keywords: Gospel
The Bible teaches that the human heart is naturally full of deceit, incurably wicked, and the source of every kind of evil, not merely sometimes, but “continually.” With this description before me, am I to bring as a present to the holy ... moreGod a thing which He Himself declares to be desperate in wickedness and surpassing all things in deceit? Will that induce Him, who is of purer eyes than to behold iniquity, to look with favor upon me?
Purpose of Heart! (G.F. Barlee)Scriptures: Proverbs 23; Ezra 7; Daniel 1; Acts 11 Keywords: Love to God/Lord
In the closing days of this dispensation. what is the condition of soul most usually met with in the greater number of Christian assemblies? Is it not almost uniformly laxity and lukewarmness, with very little heart for Christ? Yet what our blessed ... moreLord most craves for, (I write with all reverence) is surely the heart affection of His beloved saints. There may be much scriptural knowledge, combined with great zeal for work; but nothing can take the place of deep heart affection: “My son, give Me thine heart” (Proverbs 23:26).
