Conscience

Our topic today is "CONSCIENCE"

Let’s have a look on the meaning of "conscience"

1 a : the sense or consciousness
of the moral goodness or blameworthiness of one’s own conduct,
intentions, or character together with a feeling of obligation to do
right or be good.

Why do we have conscience?
Every single one of us have conscience right?

The only reason I could think of is that we’re created in the image of God.

"
So God created man in his own image,  …"(Genesis 1:27a)

Goodness is one of God’s characteristics.
Thus, we have conscience because
every single one of us is an image of God.

But consider the scenario in Rob-B-Hood.
Slipper wants to do good,
but due to his environmental factors and situation,
he cannot help but keep being a thief.

But why? I thought everyone of us should have conscience.
Everyone of us should have the obligation to do right or be good.

From observation,
there must be something that is interfering with our conscience.
Something foreign.
Something that is not suppose to be in us.
Something not from God.

What is it?

"…For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing." (Romans 6: 18-19)
