    • Assumed by some biblical writers and early Christian teachers that our conscience is God-given
    • Paul's letter to the Romans:
      • "When Gentiles, who do not possess the law, do instinctively what the law requires, these, though not having the law, are a law to themselves. They show that what the law requires is written on their hearts."
