How do we receive a new heart according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

We receive a new heart through faith in Jesus Christ and the work of the Holy Spirit.

Receiving a new heart is an act of divine grace that occurs through faith in Jesus Christ. In John 3, Jesus speaks of being 'born again,' emphasizing that it is through the work of the Holy Spirit that one receives a new heart. Acts 2:38 highlights that upon repentance and baptism in the name of Jesus, believers receive the gift of the Holy Spirit who dwells within them, facilitating this transformative process. This is not something initiated by human effort, but rather a supernatural work of God who changes the hearts of His people, as reaffirmed in Acts 4:31 where the Holy Spirit empowers believers in fellowship and ministry.
