An easy parallel can be seen between the physical organ called the heart (“Kardia”) and what the Bible
indicates is the spiritual heart (“Leb-center”) of man:
“KARDIA” “LEB” (Hebrew)
THE HEART, HEART- “CENTER”
IS THE “KEEP YOUR HEART WITH ALL
CHIEF ORGAN DILIGENCE, FOR OUT OF IT
OF PHYSICAL LIFE SPRING THE ISSUES OF LIFE”
AND OCCUPIES Prov. 4:23
THE CENTRAL PLACE
IN THE HUMAN BODY “FOR OUT OF THE ABUNDANCE
OF THE HEART
HIS MOUTH SPEAKS”

“A GOOD MAN OUT OF THE GOOD TREASURE OF HIS HEART BRINGS FORTH GOOD;
AND AN EVIL MAN OUT OF THE EVIL TREASURE OF HIS HEART BRINGS FORTH EVIL.
FOR OUT OF THE ABUNDANCE OF THE HEART HIS MOUTH SPEAKS.” Luke 6:45
How is it that the heart can be both evil and good? The answer can be summed up in one word,”
INFLUENCE.” If the source of influence on the heart comes from “the Wicked One” then the heart of
man will produce wickedness. However, if the influence on the heart comes from the Word of God, a
man’s deeds will be good. Knowing the importance of the heart, Satan seeks to keep man from
submitting to the influence of the Word of God. No place in Scripture is this taught more clearly than in
the Parable of the Sower. The stark truth presented in this parable is that three out of four hearts who
hear the Word of God suffer “cardiac arrest” as Satan moves in to steal the Word sown in their heart.
It is beyond the scope and purpose of THE GROUND IS
