The Heart

Consider the Heart. Before an obvious contention arises theres already an enmity between one's mind and one's heart. The woman's seed [so to speak] is the heart and the man's seed [so to speak] is the mind, for no better way to say it.

The heart i.e. the woman is highly favored of God; through the heart He comes to us all!

As to men and women: Ladies think from the heart to great degree while the mind is engaged in some degree. Men think with the mind to great degree while the heart may be engaged in some degree. These can make great marriages if the one is humble toward the other, seeing the absolute need for one another. It is not good to be alone at this level!

In the [image of God] created He them; the Kings English says. Male and female created He them, it continues. Gods image according to this is male and female! The female sets the tone and the male leads out once her tone is set. Let us look closely at the initial authority of the woman or the authority of the heart here. This is true in God himself! We are made in His image!

The heart sets the tone for the mind when things are in Gods order. The Word of God continually speaks to the idea that the heart is where God does his work within us. Belief from the heart is how God begins His work of restoration within us. Ro.10:8-9-10. Our feminine part sets the tone for God to work this in us. The feminine part is the heart! (Its not our male part or our rational part that God appeals to). If we are too rational i.e. dwell too much in the mind, the Spirit of God cannot get any real foot-hold within us. The mind of itself is offended by the Gospel of Christ because so far as the mind is concerned this Gospel does not make any real sense. To the Greeks when the Gospel first came it was also foolishness, (they were more mind than they were heart). Pity them.

The heart receives the Gospel! She, [the heart] is the avenue to full restoration by way of the Christs Gospel! Christ came to restore mankind by way of the heart! By way of the heart we Love and by way of the heart we alas come to soundness of mind! The heart cannot become sound by way of the mind; mankind continues to work from that end.

She, (the heart) sets the tone and once that tone is absolutely set into the fabric of the mind, then the renewed mind leads out which started out by her reception of the Gospel. The hungry heart leads us to Christ and to his wholeness! Its all internal and beautiful!

God can use the mind but He begins with the heart! From the heart proceed the issues of life! As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he!

The perverse and reverse thing can occur, let us be warned. She the heart can become competitive and proud; in so doing she works to control the mind rather than simply setting the tone for the mind! In so doing she emphasizes information rather than Spirit, knowing that information is the specialty of the mind. Now shes in control by his appetite. [This is how women get in control of men in the natural as well]. The heart bears watching. If the heart is pure, the heart can safely lead us. In the reverse/perverse process is where false religion is birthed. The cart gets in front of the horse. These are not shallow things and its difficult to speak of them in simple terms, I have tried.
