What does the Bible say about the heart of a fool?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible describes a fool as one who says in their heart, 'There is no God.'

Psalm 14 addresses the condition of the fool who declares in his heart that there is no God. This declaration stems from a profound pride and ignorance about the reality of God’s existence and authority over creation. The fool's heart reflects a spiritual blindness that leads him to reject not only a relationship with God but also the understanding of his own sinful nature and need for salvation. Whereas humankind might appear intelligent in their accomplishments, God sees this rejection as folly, indicating a corrupt heart and a lack of moral understanding.
