Definition
Orientation of the Heart refers to the interior locus of intention where faith is formed and discerned.
Context
The Yeshuan Model emphasizes that God discerns the heart rather than external affiliation. Because institutional mediation has ended, spiritual standing is not measured by ritual, doctrine, or membership but by inward orientation toward love and humility.
The heart negotiates between what the model describes as the Spirit of Man and the Spirit of Christ. This negotiation shapes behavior and disposition.
Implications
Spiritual growth becomes relational rather than performative. External conformity loses ultimate significance. Internal intention gains prominence.
This focus also supports humility, as individuals cannot rely on outward identity to secure assurance.
Common Misunderstanding
Emphasis on the heart is sometimes interpreted as dismissing action. Within this framework, outward action flows from inward orientation.
