What is the difference between “unto the heart” and “into the heart”?

Thomas R. Valletta

“The power of the Spirit carries the message unto but not necessarily into the heart. A teacher can explain, demonstrate, persuade, and testify, and do so with great spiritual power and effectiveness. Ultimately, however, the content of a message and the witness of the Holy Ghost penetrate into the heart only if a receiver allows them to enter. Learning by faith opens the pathway into the heart” (Bednar, “Seek Learning by Faith,” 61).
