Living With Your Conscience

Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg emphasizes the importance of a clean conscience, as it is necessary for spiritual blessings and joy. Conscience is a spiritual organ that aligns our moral consciousness with God's definition of good and evil. A person with a perverted conscience is in great spiritual danger as they reject the truth and cannot repent, and a defiled conscience can lead to feelings of guilt and a loss of joy in life. To maintain a clean conscience, it is crucial to avoid sin and adopt patterns of living that avoid further violations, listen to conscience checks, and submit to authorities.
