15)For this people’s heart is
waxed gross, and their ears
are dull of hearing, and their
eyes they have closed; lest at
any time they should see
with their eyes, and hear
with their ears, and should
understand with heart, and
should be converted and I
should heal them

FOR THE PEOPLE’S HEART IS
WAXED GROSS
For this people heart is
waxed gross or fat, become
stupid, without
understanding, worldly.
JESUS CHRIST spoke
concerning the unbelievers
reject and loose more and
more.
The unbeliever’s rejection is
willful, as sees and hear, yet
he refuses to really open his
eyes and hears, he refuses to
understand.
This people’s heart has
become hardened, illogical,
rebellious and refuse to
understand, the heart has
overgrown fat ( overweight)
to eat and eat, adding weight
upon weight, is living after
the flesh and making no
sense at all
It is carnal, worldly without
GOD, due to worldliness and
lust for the things of the
world being deceived by the
devil
The clear description of the
unbeliever rejection is:
-They harden their
hearts
-They deafen their
ears
-They close their eyes
-They refuse
understanding
-They fight conversion
and healing

KEEP THY HEART WITH ALL
DILIGENCE
Thy heart is where thoughts
and especially the will and
affections, which are the
more immediate and
effectual cause of all men’s
action

be used in keeping it, since it
is naturally so deceitful and
treacherous; a strict eye
should be kept on it the heart
is the fountain of desire and
decisions
OUT OF IT ARE ISSUES OF
LIFE
It is the seat of it, from
where all action of life is
derived so as natural and
spiritual life, which leads to
eternal life and happiness; as
on the contrary all evil action
tending to death comes from
the heart
The life and death of the
soul proceeds from the
heart: an upright,
enlightened, renewed,
devout, and watchful heart
gives birth to those holy
dispositions, words and
actions, which manifest
spiritual life, and lead to
eternal life
While a heart insincere,
unenlightened, unrenowned,
and corrupt, without
knowledge, without grace,
produce those tempers,
words and works which
implies spiritual death and
leads to eternal death
