The Heart the Seat of Your Soul
And he answering said, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself. Luke 10:27 (AKJV) I spent several years working in medical devices companies that build cardiac devices for patient care. I had to learn all about the physical heart and how it functions. One interesting fact is the heart doesn't need a body. The heart actually can still beat after being removed from the body. This pulsing occurs because the heart generates its own electrical impulses, which cause it to beat. As long as the heart continues to receive oxygen, it will keep going, even if separated from the rest of the body. When Jesus commands us to love God with all our heart. He is not speaking of the physical heart, but the non-physical heart that you cannot see or hear. The term "heart" is never used in the New Testament to refer to the physical organ of man.
