“What Does It Means to Believe With the Heart” by Apostle and teacher Frederick K.C. Price delves into the profound concept of believing with the heart. Let’s explore the key points from this insightful teaching:
  1. Understanding Belief with the Heart:
    • Mere academic study cannot fully prepare us to comprehend the Bible; true understanding requires spiritual discernment.
    • First Peter 3:4 refers to “the hidden person of the heart,” emphasizing an inner aspect beyond the physical organ.
    • Romans 10:10 also speaks of believing with the heart, emphasizing a deeper level of conviction.
  2. The Heart as the Spirit:
    • When Scripture mentions the heart, it does not refer to the physical heart that pumps blood.
    • Instead, it conveys the core of our being—the spirit. Man is tripartite: spirit, soul, and body.
    • The heart represents the innermost part of us, where belief or doubt resides.
  3. Man Is a Spirit:
    • Man is made in God’s image and likeness, and God is a Spirit (John 4:24).
    • The inward man (spirit) is distinct from the outward man (body).
    • The new birth involves a rebirth of the human spirit.
  4. Clarifying Misunderstood Scriptures:
    • 2 Corinthians 5:6 (“…while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord”) is often misinterpreted.
    • Dr. Price clarifies that our true identity is in the spirit, not merely the physical body.
  5. Foundational Scripture: Mark 11:23:
    • Mark 11:23 teaches that believing with the heart leads to powerful results.
    • It emphasizes faith, conviction, and the spiritual dimension of belief.
In summary, understanding the heart’s role in belief goes beyond physicality—it taps into the depths of our spirit. Apostle Price’s teaching sheds light on this crucial aspect of faith and encourages us to engage with God at the heart level.
