THE HARDENED HEART


Text: Psalm 95:8-10

Introduction:

A. This verse is repeated in the New Testament.
"...Today if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness," (Hebrews 3:7,8).

B. A hard stone. "Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone...," (Zechariah 7:12).

C. A process over a period of years.

I. THE REASON A HEART BECOMES HARDENED.

A. Sin. Heb. 3:13 "But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin."

B. Resisting the Holy Spirit. (Acts 7:51 Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye.)

C. Rejecting the Lord Jesus Christ. (John 12:48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.)

A man in the community that was eighty two years old when he died. He was not saved. At his funeral his neighbor said that he could remember him when he was young and under such strong Holy Spirit conviction that he would weep and tremble during the invitation hymn. He said after many years he noticed that gospel preaching didn't bother him anymore. His heart was hardened.

II. THE RESULTS OF A HARDENED HEART.

A. One becomes insensitive to the Word of God.

B. It becomes easier and easier to reject the Lord.

C. The sinner gets less and less concerned about his lost condition.

D. He is walking on dangerous ground with God.

Read (1 Sam. 25:37,38)

III. THE REMEDY FOR A HARDENED HEART.

A. Hear the gospel message.

B. Heed the Spirit's call.

C. Don't put salvation off another moment.

D. Receive Christ as your Savior.

E. God will give you a new heart. (Ezek. 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. 27And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.)
