HARDENED HEARTS

HARDENED HEARTS
(King James Expositor Study Bible).

Attention everyone, this is a must read by everyone of all ages and I will warn you ahead of time, that many of you just may get upset with me for this but, you just maybe getting upset with God because, the Holy Spirit may step on your toes.

Most people today, especially "Christians", are guilty of this, if they want to admit it or not and that is, their hearts have become hardened, which is a very bad thing, infact, it is very sinful and it seperates soul's from God and from getting into Heaven and I am about to explain now.

Having a hardened heart, produces the following,

Makes one to have no problem sinning and gain a thinking that one douse not have to repent for anything that they have said or done.

Thinking that they can say and do whatever and say whatever and thinking that they still will go to Heaven.

Curse with a loose toungue in there everday conversations and not feel guilty about it.

Have no problem drinking and getting drunk.

Have no problem living a foul and foolish lifestyles.

Have no problem with smoking, using mairana and shooting up.

To having no problems dressing themselves and their kids like whores.

No issues to do anything else, that God forbids.

Everything mentioned and I am sure that there are so much more that I can mention here but, everything that has mentioned, can keep you out of Heaven,  due to the sin of having a heardened heart.

Lets go through the Word of God on this topic and please, invite and allow the Holy Spirit to enter into your hearts to soften your hardened heart's, so the Holy Spirit can have the lattide to work in you and in your life if, you are the one that has, a hardened heart.

A hardened heart rejects Jesus Christ and rejects the Cross.

A hardened heart, is an unsaved heart.

Ephesians 4:18 Having the understanding darkened (speaks of a process completed in the past [the Fall] but having results in the present), being alienated from the life of God (proclaims the only true life there is) through the ignorance that is in them (does not refer merely to intellect, but denotes an ignorance of Divine things), because of the blindness of their heart (it is a “willful ignorance”which brings about a “willful blindness,”i.e., “spiritual blindness”):

Matthew 13:14-15 And in them (those who reject the Cross [I Cor. 1:23]) is fulfilled the Prophecy of Isaiah, which says, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive (a willful deafness, a willful blindness, and a willful dullness; this Passage is quoted in one form or the other some seven times in the New Testament [Mat. 13:14-15; Mk. 4:12; Lk. 8:10; Jn. 12:39-40; Acts 28:26-27; Rom. 11:8]): 15 For this people’s heart is waxed gross (this is the reason for their spiritual dullness and, therefore, rejection of Christ; Spiritual rejection or acceptance begins in the heart), and their ears are dull of hearing (they have heard, and heard, and little acted on what they heard, and the Holy Spirit pulls back until they lose even that which they have had), and their eyes they have closed (deliberately did so, even in the face of irrefutable proof); lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them (they would not turn to Him; had they done so He would most certainly have healed them morally, and spiritually; this speaks of those who have accepted the Lord, but for various reasons will fall by the wayside; as stated, this completely refutes the unscriptural doctrine of unconditional eternal security).

Proverbs 28:13-14 He who covers his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesses and forsakes them shall have mercy. (Achan covered his transgressions [Josh., Chpt. 7], and neither he nor Israel prospered until he was found out and justly judged. Had he voluntarily confessed his sin and forsaken it, he would have found Mercy. Many are willing to confess their sins, at least after a fashion, but few are willing to forsake them.) 14 Happy is the man who fears always: but he who hardens his heart shall fall into mischief. (The broken and contrite spirit produces a “happiness”that only God can give. The “hardened heart”cannot be dealt with by the Holy Spirit. Such hearts will go astray.)

Hebrews 3:8 Harden not your hearts (as Israel hardened their hearts against God in the wilderness, it is likewise possible for modern Christians to do the same), as in the provocation (Israel provoked God), in the day of temptation in the wilderness (the Lord didn’t tempt Israel, they tempted Him!):

Mark 8:17 And when Jesus knew it, He said unto them (the Holy Spirit revealed to Him their confusion), Why reason you, because you have no bread? (In other words, I’m not talking about physical bread.) perceive you not yet, neither understand? have you your heart yet hardened? (They were looking too much in the physical, and not at all in the spiritual.)

Exodus 9:12 And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had spoken unto Moses. (Once again, the Lord provided the means for Pharaoh to harden his own heart. The Lord did not tamper with the will of the Monarch in all of this. In other words, Pharaoh was not forced by the Lord to take the position which he took. All of this was of his own volition.)

Exodus 7:3 And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart (the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart, by providing the means for the monarch to do so; in fact, He does the same with all; some accept the Lord, while some rebel, even as did Pharaoh), and multiply My Signs and My Wonders in the land of Egypt. (It is God’s purpose that Israel shall be preeminent in the Earth; and, therefore, everyone who presumes to stand in the way of that preeminence must be set aside. Divine Grace must find its object; and everyone who would act as a barrier in the way of that Grace must be taken out of the way, whether it be Egypt, Babylon, or “the beast that was, is not, and yet is”; it matters not. Divine Power will clear the channel for Divine Grace to flow and eternal woe be to all who stand in the way. The Palestinians should read these words very carefully.)

Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? (God knows the hopeless corruption of the natural heart, and so He said to Nicodemus that no one, however cultured and moral, can either see or enter into the Kingdom of God. There must be a new birth.)

Hebrews 4:12 For the Word of God is quick (alive), and powerful (active, energizing), and sharper than any two-edged sword (refers to the ability of the Word of God to “probe”), piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow (doesn’t mean the dividing asunder of soul from spirit or joints from marrow, but rather that the Word of God pierces the soul and the spirit, adequately proclaiming what man ought to be and can only be in Christ; as well, the Word of God portrays to us the Holy Spirit and His Power, and proclaims the fact that He Alone can “quicken our mortal bodies”[Rom. 8:11], which refers to giving us power to yield this physical body to that which is Righteous [Rom. 6:12-13]), and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart (carries the idea of “sifting out and analyzing evidence”).

John 12:48 He who rejects Me, and receives not My Words, has One Who Judges him (presents a Truth that the Church desperately needs to hear and understand, and the entirety of the world for that matter): the Word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day (speaks of the “Judgment Seat of Christ”for Believers, and the “Great White Throne Judgment”for unbelievers).

Psalms 119:9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to Your Word. (The applied Word alone can cleanse.)
