Heart or Mouth?
I looked in the Bible (NIV) and counted:
Heart: mentioned 743 times
Mouth: mentioned 308 times
Words out of mouth are usually from the heart:
Matthew 12:34 You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.
Luke 6:45 The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.
Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.
Where does God meet us at? Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God.
1 Timothy 1:5
The goal of this command is love, which comes from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith. Acts 15:9 He made no distinction between us and them, for he purified their hearts by faith.
