The Conscience - Our Innermost Thoughts

The Great Bible Study - Jan 9, 2020

Matt 4:19 - And He saith unto them, Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men. James 4:19 - Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin. Knowing good and failing to do it, it is sin Conscience - the faculty by which distinctions are madebetween moral - what is right and what is wrong. Luke 12:41 - Then Peter said unto Him, Lord, speakest Thou this parable unto us, or even to all? Luke 12:46-48 -  The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.  And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more. Conscience - inner thoughts in regards to conduct People turn to drugs and alcohol trying to kill their conscience Phil 3:1 - Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe. James 1:13 - Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth He any man: Phil 3:7-9 - But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, and be found in Him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: Phil 3:13 - Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, Rom 8:28 - ...that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose. James 4:7 - Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Pray to God and resist the devil...keep resisting! John 15:18 - If the world hate you, ye know that it hated Me before it hated you. Luke 23:31 - For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry? Phil 4:4-5 - Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice. Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. Matt 5:16 - Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Luke 12:48 - …unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required… Phil 4:6 - Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. Thank and praise God…in everything give thanks and give praise Phil 4:7-8 - And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
