Conscience, 32

 ~ Realize There Are Deceivers, 2 ~

 

Series Note ~ The conscience plays a crucial role in human behavior.  The Scripture has much to say about our conscience.  In posts 1—20 of this series, we looked at various descriptions of conscience.  In posts 21—25 we looked at the Big Four Emotional factors that have a very negative impact on our consciences.  Finally starting with post 26 we look at dangers to the conscience. 

 

Scripture ~ The Word of God and the Spirit of God are our teachers.  It is true that within the true Church God has many good and capable teacher assistants.  However, any time teaching does not align with the Word and the Spirit it is false teaching. 

 

True ~ Before leaving earth Jesus said, “These things I have spoken to you while being present with you.  But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.  Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you.  Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.  You have heard Me say to you, ‘I am going away and coming back to you.’  If you loved Me, you would rejoice because I said, ‘I am going to the Father,’ for My Father is greater than I” (John 14:25-28).

 

Fake ~ “But what I do, I will also continue to do, that I may cut off the opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be regarded just as we are in the things of which they boast.  For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ.  And no wonder!  For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.  Therefore, it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works” (2 Corinthians 11:12-15).

 

Solution ~ Know God not just know about God.  Be intimate with Him.  If you need assistance, I suggest the websites www.HeavenOrNot.org or www.three-two-one.org.  

 

Question ~ On a scale of 1-10 (10 is the best) how is our intimacy with God?
