What does the Bible say about the deceitfulness of the heart?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible describes the heart as deceitful and desperately wicked (Jeremiah 17:9), warning believers not to trust in their own feelings or strength.

The Scriptures present the heart as deceitful and wicked, as expressed in Jeremiah 17:9. This passage indicates that our hearts can lead us astray and encourage us to trust in our own abilities or emotions. The sermon emphasizes that, despite being redeemed, believers still carry the old nature within them which is prone to sin and deception. Therefore, it is paramount for Christians to recognize their hearts' tendencies and not to place their faith in their feelings, actions, or sincerity, as these are often flawed and variable.
