Biblical Understanding based on the Record of Scripture
The word "heart", in English, has a wide variety of applications. This is true of both the use of the word in Hebrew and Greek as well, so it behooves us to consider what is being talked about when we come across it in our study. We were made in the image of God, and the Bible reveals God has both a spirit, and a heart. He is involved in influencing both in mankind. Often, the words heart and spirit are used in the same scripture, and as such, give us a window of understanding of the two. What is the purpose of each?

1John 3:1-3 NKJV
Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called the children of God! Therefore, the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.
Beloved, now we are the children of God, and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be but when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.
And everyone who has this hope in Him (the Father) purifies himself, just as He (the Father) is pure.
