How do we know the doctrine of a new heart is true?

Answered in 2 sources

The doctrine of a new heart is affirmed in Scripture, particularly in Ezekiel 36:26, which underscores God's promise of spiritual renewal.

The truth of the doctrine of a new heart is grounded in the clear promises made by God in Scripture. In Ezekiel 36:26, God promises to replace the 'stony heart' with a 'heart of flesh,' indicating a deep spiritual renewal that only He can accomplish. The New Testament reinforces this teaching, illustrating the necessity of this transformation for true faith and commitment to Christ. Without the new heart that God provides, individuals remain trapped in their self-serving ways. Therefore, the assertion that believers receive a new heart is unequivocally supported by biblical texts and the transformational experiences recounted in Christian life.
