THE HEART OF MAN OR THE SPIRITUAL HEART MIRROR (An Allegorical Representation in Ten Pictures) This booklet started in France in 1732, was reconsidered and re-composed for the mission fields of Africa by Rev. J. R. Gschwend in 1929, and has in this manner been interpreted and printed under copyright in more than 250 indigenous dialects by All Nations Gospel Publishers who are dispersing it today in 127 strategic everything being equal, classes and religions are being driven by this booklet to encounter the profound otherworldly truth and essentialness of God's message to humankind as communicated by the prophet Ezekiel 586 years before Christ, â€Å"I will give you a new heart and another psyche †¦ then you will be my kin, and I will be your God! † Ezekiel 36:26-28. THE HEART OF MAN THE TEMPLE OF GOD OR THE WORKSHOP OF SATAN 1 John 3:4-10 As you read this book, it would be ideal if you remember that it resembles a mirror wherein you will have the option to see yourself.Wh ether you are a rapscallion or a Christian, one who doesn't have faith in Christ or a renegade, you will consider yourself to be God sees you. â€Å"Man takes a gander at the outward appearance, yet I take a gander at the heart† (1 Sam. 16:7). God considers us to be we truly are. Satan is the dad everything being equal. He is the ruler of haziness and divine force of this world, who masks himself as a heavenly attendant of light to lead people the incorrect way. In nowadays, as in times past, there are numerous bogus witnesses who camouflage themselves, professing to be messengers of Christ. What's more, no big surprise, for Satan himself is changed (masked) into a holy messenger of light (2 Cor. 1:13, 14). Satan, the lord of this world, keeps individuals in obscurity with the goal that they can't see that God cherishes them or that Jesus passed on to spare them (2 Cor. 4:4). All delinquents and the individuals who don't accept are profoundly dead and visually impaired concer ning God. They are administered by the underhandedness of this world (Eph. 2:1-2). Except if their eyes are opened here and there to their lost condition, they are setting out toward interminable devastation. The individual who says, â€Å"I have never sinned† is beguiling himself. For â€Å"The Son of God showed up for this very explanation, to demolish what the demon had done† (1 John 3:8). â€Å"So at that point, submit to God.Resist the fallen angel, and he will flee from you. Draw close to God, and He will draw close to you† (James 4:7, 8). As you read this book and study its photos, you will have the option to see your own heart. Permit God's searchlight to show you the state of your heart. Recognize your wrongdoings and don't deny their reality, for God's Word reveals to us that â€Å"If we state that we have no transgression, we delude ourselves, and there is no fact in us. In any case, in the event that we admit our wrongdoings to God, He will stay fai thful to His commitment and do what is 3  © Copyright by: ALL NATIONS GOSPEL PUBLISHERS P. O.

You are managed either by Satan or by God; you are a captive to sin or a hireling of God. On the off chance that transgression controls your life, don't deny it, however shout out to God. He will liberate you through Jesus Christ who resulted in these present circumstances world to spare delinquents, to break the intensity of Satan and sin over us, He is our Savior. You are within the sight of a heavenly God who knows all the insider facts, the shrouded musings and activities of your life.It is difficult to conceal yourself and activities from God, for â€Å"God made our ears †wouldn't he be able to hear? He made our eyes †wouldn't he be able to see? † (Ps. 94:9). â€Å"The Lord oversees the entire world, to invigorate those whose hearts are faithful to Him† (2 Chron. 16:9). â€Å"He observes each progression men take. There is no haziness sufficiently dim to conceal a heathen from God† (Job 34:21, 22). â€Å"But Jesus didn't confide in Himself to them, since He knew them all† (John 2:24). In this way â€Å"happy are those whose wrongdoings are excused, whose wrongs are exculpated. Upbeat is the man whom the Lord doesn't blame for fouling up and who is liberated from all deceit† (Matt. 1:28-30). Clarification of the Pictures THE FIRST PICTURE This image shows the core of a common, wicked man or lady, depicted in the Bible as a miscreant, that is, one who is constrained by the underhandedness of this world and by the normal wants and yearnings of the human instinct. This is a genuine image of the heart from God's perspective. The dim, red eyes discuss tipsi ness as portrayed in Proverbs 23:29-33: â€Å"Show me somebody who drinks excessively, who needs to evaluate some new beverage, and I will give you somebody hopeless and sorry for himself, continually raising a ruckus and consistently complaining.His eyes are ragged looking, and he has wounds that could have been maintained a strategic distance from. Try not to let wine entice you, despite the fact that it is rich red, however it shines in the cup, and it goes down easily. The following morning you will feel as though you have been chomped by a toxic snake. Bizarre sights will show up before your eyes, and you won't have the option to think or talk unmistakably. † Below the head in this image, the core of man can be seen involved by different creatures which talk about the various sins in the human heart, as the heart is the middle and reproducing spot of our sins.God lets us know by the mouth of His prophet Jeremiah, that â€Å"Nobody can comprehend the human heart. There i s nothing else so misleading: it is too debilitated to even think about being healed† (Jeremiah 17:9). Jesus Himself affirms this by saying, â€Å"For from within, from an individual's heart, come the insidious thoughts which lead him to do corrupt things; to loot, execute, submit infidelity, be ravenous, and do a wide range of underhandedness things; double dealing, foulness, desire, criticism, pride, and imprudence †all these shrewd things originate from inside an individual and make him unclean† (Mark 7:21-23). 1.THE PEACOCK While the excellence of the peacock is respected by everyone, here in the core of man, it talks about the wrongdoing of pride. Lucifer, when God's extraordinary heavenly attendant of light, lost his situation through pride thus turned into God's adversary †the demon (Isaiah 14:9-17; Ezekiel 28:12-17). 4 5 Pride originates from the extremely focal point of heck, and uncovers itself from various perspectives. A few people highly esteem th eir wealth, their standard of training: trendy attire by which they uncover their bodies in an improper manner: the wearing of jingling adornments, arm bands, rings, and so on , with no guarantees so plainly depicted in Isaiah 3:16-24.Some value their progenitors, nationality, culture, sport, and so forth. , overlooking that â€Å"God opposes the pleased, however demonstrates favor to the humble† (1 Peter 5:5). God abhors pride and grandiosity (Proverbs 8:13). â€Å"Pride prompts annihilation, and pomposity to downfall† (Proverbs 16:18). 2. THE GOAT speaks to substantial wants, unethical behavior, infidelity. The wrongdoings referenced here have expanded in these advanced, however a days ago, to such a degree, that we need to concede reality of the expressions of Jesus when He anticipated, about 2000 years prior, that the most recent days will resemble the times of Sodom and Gomorrah.Not just has this corrupt method of living grasped people and come into the homes of s trict individuals and foundations, the schools and inns, yet this fiendishness indecently and in an unobtrusive manner enters the hearts of individuals by methods for films, theaters, foul writing, and from numerous points of view, that what God calls sin is being viewed as present day ethical quality. A huge number of youngsters structure their concept of a perfect life from the films and books, just to wind up in a difficult situation, disgrace and regret.Immoral a free living entertainers and on-screen characters become the saints and courageous women of the more youthful age. The ballrooms, as well, are regularly the rearing spots of indecency. God's legends of immaculateness, similar to Joseph (Genesis 39) and others, are not, at this point taken as models. Indeed, even the old Zulu pagan, who might execute a miscreant or adulteress, could show our alleged cultivated age a thing or two and face us in judgment at the day of judgment. God instructs us not to play with indecency h owever to keep away from it. Some other sin a man submits doesn't influence his body; yet the man who is liable of extramarital perversion sins against his own body: Don't you realize that your body is the sanctuary of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and who was given to you by God? You don't have a place with yourselves yet to God† (1 Cor. 6:18, 19); â€Å"So on the off chance that anybody wrecks God's sanctuary, God will devastate him. For God's sanctuary is sacred, and you yourselves are His temple† (1 Cor. 3:17). 7 1. The delinquent's heart 6 3. THE PIG talks about the wrongdoings of inebriation and gluttony.It is a messy creature enthusiastically gobbling up everything in its manner, spotless or filthy, and similarly a wicked heart eats up each corrupt recommendation, articulation, picture, writing, and so forth. The body, planned to be the sanctuary of the living God, is made messy by hurtful food and foul propensities, for example, the smoking or biting of toba cco, the utilization of opium and destructive medications and tablets, and so on. The propensity for smoking tobacco and even â€Å"opium† has grasped people as at no other time. Just the intensity of God can free such poor tobacco casualties and captives of the devil.While most strictly slanted individuals would not set out to smoke in a congregation building, thinking of it as right around an affront to God, they all things considered have no delay about dirtying through this smelling weed, what is really the sanctuary of God, I. e. , their bodies. â€Å"Surely you know† says the Apostle Paul, â€Å"that you are God's sanctuary and that God's Spirit lives in you! So in the event that anybody annihilates God's sanctuary, God will demolish him† (1 Cor. 3:16, 17; 6:18, 19). A ravenous individual is disdainful or worth nothing in seeing God. We eat so as to live; we don't live so as to eat.Hunger can be fulfilled by eating healthy food, however covetousness will c onsistently cry â€Å"Give, give! † , G
