Conscience, 33of33

 ~ Summary: Conscience ~

 

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 posts 26—32 looked at a few of the dangers related to the conscience. 

 

Summary ~ The teaching in Scripture about the human conscience is varied.  But one thing is very clear.  God endowed humans with a conscience to guide them regarding right and wrong. 

 

Choice ~ Through our actions our conscience can be extremely useful or it can be ignored to the point of little or no value. 

 

Best Solution ~ Allow your conscience to guide you as you seek to be increasingly close to God and His will for you. 

 

Scripture ~ “Therefore, do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.  And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, submitting to one another in the fear of God” (Ephesians 5:17-21).

 

Additional Help ~ If you would like to understand the three main categories of the will of God consider obtaining the eBook: “GOD’S DESIRE: How To Please God” (https://books2read.com/GodsDesire).

 

This book contains two easy to grasp graphical models.  “The Christian Life Model” covers the basics and “The Christian Guidance Model” explains how to consistently make Godly decisions.
