Spiritual Deception

Question #8

Note the places where the word conscience comes up (vs 5 & 19).  When we speculate and theorize instead of dealing with our own issues of sin, what happens to conscience?

*Definition of conscience: an inner sense of what is right and wrong.

Romans 1:16-22

We have a conscience to be aware.   Cor.  1:12

Faith & conscience must go together  1Tim.  4: 1 & 2

Seared: doesn’t fulfill it’s original purpose for God

Question #9

Why do faith and a good conscience go together (v.19, see also 3:9 & 4:2)?

1 Tim 3:9, 4:2, 1:19, Heb. 13:18, 1 Peter 3:13 – 22

  • A clear conscience is transparent
  • A seared conscience is clouded Roman 1:28

The relationship between you & Christ allows us to work in faith and in a clear conscience.
