Within God’s Word, there are two very different categories of being simple or simplicity. The negative and condemned category names such people as “the simple.” It involves a lack of learning, understanding, as well as the choices and results that flow from that mindset. We will call this “simple minds.”
In contrast, we discover in God’s Word the description of what we should seek and develop: Simplicity of heart that yields integrity, sincerity, and honesty. This approach looks to keeping our hearts pure and focusing on God.
