Why is it incorrect to say that matter contains heat?

Heat is not an internal property of matter (temperature is!), heat is just a way to change the temperature of an object... it is a flow of energy. Think of it this way, before you study for a physics test you have a certain level of understanding physics. While you read your text book (or wiki answers) you are studying (understanding is flowing into your head) and afterward you (hopefully) have a greater understanding of physics. Although "studying" went into you, you do not have a certain amount of "study" inside of you before or after, you had an amount of understanding. In that analogy, "studying" represents heat and "understanding of physics" represents temperature. Heat is just a way to change temperature and therefore you cannot say that matter contains heat!
