The Bible uses the heart to represent the whole inner person, the part of a person that receives a new body as he (she) moves from life on earth into the rest of eternity. Because the heart is the key to each person’s eternal good, our loving God makes purifying our hearts a priority. He gives true progress, but He also wants each of His children in Jesus to co-operate with His work for our good.
This allows major problems. A heart often has unhealed wounds, wrong beliefs, and distracting treasures. The heart naturally protects itself against getting changed, even by deceiving one’s own mind if necessary. And the devil and demons try diligently to deceive people out of receiving God’s great good in Jesus. This book is written to show Biblical solutions for these kinds of heart problems.
