I quoted Jeremiah 17:9 on Facebook the other day concerning those who say "Just follow your heart." While sympathisizing with my concern, a couple of my friends pointed out that Ezekiel says that we are given hearts of flesh instead of stone, and Paul says that we are new creatures in Christ, therefore, the heart of a Christian is no longer deceitful and wicked by nature. Is this true? If so, what is the cause of our wickedness as Christians? Where exactly does sin still dwell in us?
