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.

Colossians 1:23-26 NKJV
If indeed you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was preached to every creature under heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister.

of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God (Theos-the Father) which was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God,
the mystery which has been hidden from ages and generations but now revealed to His saints.
