Conscience
Conscience is the inward faculty by which a person recognizes and evaluates right and wrong. Scripture says it may be defiled or hardened, but believers should seek a conscience clear before God.
Biblical Usage
The Bible speaks of conscience as defiled or seared, yet calls believers to maintain a conscience void of offense. It may accuse or approve, direct conduct, and produce remorse or peace. The supplied material also connects conscience with accountability before God and the final judgment.
