“To go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God.”
Martin Luther
What is the conscience, and how does it work?
What role does it play in the Christian’s life, and how do we nurture a healthy conscience and guard against spiritual suicide? The conscience may be the most under-appreciated and least understood attribute of humanity. Yet, it is one of the most tremendous gifts from God. In this study, Pastor Marvin R. Knight defines the conscience, explains how and when it functions, what it judges, and what conditions our conscience can be in in. He concludes by sharing how we can maintain a good, pure, clean, healthy conscience.
“For our proud confidence is this: the testimony of our conscience, that in holiness and godly sincerity, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially toward you.” 2 CORINTHIANS 1:12
