Heart Trouble
“Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also” (John 14:1-3).
One of the greatest problems, if not the greatest, that faces a Christian is heart trouble.
Heart trouble can keep one from believing in God (Psa. 14:1). Hearts that have been hardened through unbelief need to be broken.
Heart trouble will stop many from believing in Jesus (Rom. 10:9, 10). Regardless of the evidence some will not come to believe.
Heart trouble prevents many from repenting of their sins (Rom. 2:4). Some will not allow their heart to know the goodness of God.
Heart trouble keeps lips silent (Jo. 12:42, 43). Fear is a symptom of spiritual heart trouble.
Some will not be baptized because of heart trouble (Rom. 6:3-4, 16-18). They simply do not believe.
