A Return to “Conscienceness” — Awareness of and Faithfulness to the Inner Moral Compass
View all responsesI believe that the disharmony and chaos in contemporary culture will eventually lead to a return to “conscienceness” — awareness of and faithfulness to the inner moral compass called the conscience. I believe that the human conscience is a supernatural gift from the living God given to us to show us how to live a beautiful life. I’m excited and looking forward to seeing the heroes who will boldly and compassionately obey and speak their conscience in the face of public disapproval. I believe that will lead to a spiritual awakening of the joy of early Christianity.
Let God arise inside of you. Let Him lead you from within and guide you as He speaks in and through your conscience.
Our conscience can be programmed and deceived by our culture and by our own free will. It’s common for us humans to justify disobeying our conscience and to try to make it approve of our feelings and desires.
Our conscience isn’t God, but it is a gift from God to help lead us to the abundant life He wants for all people. All of us humans would be better off if we would cultivate sensitivity to our conscience rather than hardening our heart to it.
When a country continually encourages people to ignore their conscience and embrace corruption, its citizens become captives to controlling desires. We live in a time when society and its seemingly omnipresent media are constantly tempting people to be unfaithful to their conscience–to lie, flatter, and harbor deception, to boast of freedom while they are prisoners of their own desires. As for me, my conscience tells me some things are wrong and I can’t say they are right just to make people happy.
