St Paul on the conscience
St Paul
· Conscience judges us
· Even those who do not believe in God or who are non-religious have a conscience as it is written on our hearts
· Fallible – can be wrong
· Because of this, the conscience is a general inclination that does not guarantee correct knowledge of what is right and wrong
· Some people are mistakenly informed by their conscience
· A mistaken conscience is associated with lack of knowledge – we must inform it with the truth
· As conscience can be mistaken, we can still be judged for our actions even if we believe them to be right
· The conscience cannot be God’s voice within us
