Bible Questions Answered:
“...I
don't feel guilty...”
Harry/
Chicago, Illinois U.S.A.
Bible Answer:
Bible Texts:
Is it true, that some never feel any guilt of sin? Yes,
and it is because they have deadened their conscience.
Dead
Conscience:
Romans
1:28-32 NLT
28
Since they thought it foolish to acknowledge God, He abandoned them
to their foolish thinking and let them do things that should never be
done.
29
Their lives became full of every kind of wickedness, sin, greed,
hate, envy, murder, quarreling, deception, malicious behavior, and
gossip.
30
They are backstabbers, haters of God, insolent, proud, and boastful.
They invent new ways of sinning, and they disobey their parents.
31
They refuse to understand, break their promises, are heartless, and
have no mercy.
32
They know God’s justice requires that those who do these things
deserve to die, yet they do them anyway. Worse yet, they encourage
others to do them, too.
Romans
8:5-8 NLT
5
Those who are dominated by the sinful nature think about sinful
things, but those who are controlled by The Holy Spirit think about
things that please The Spirit.
6
So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But
letting The Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.
7
For the sinful nature is always hostile to God. It never did obey
God’s laws, and it never will.
8
That’s why those who are still under the control of their sinful
nature can never please God.
I
Timothy 4:1,2 KJV
1
Now The Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some
shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and
doctrines of devils;
2
Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot
iron;
I
Timothy 4:1,2 NLT
1
Now The Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will
turn away from the true faith; they will follow deceptive spirits and
teachings that come from demons.
2
These people are hypocrites and liars, and their consciences are
dead.
Titus
1:15,16 NLT
15
Everything is pure to those whose hearts are pure. But nothing is
pure to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, because their minds
and consciences are corrupted.
16
Such people claim they know God, but they deny Him by the way they
live. They are detestable and disobedient, worthless for doing
anything good.
I
John 3:20 KJV
For
if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth
all things.

1:5, 19 KJV (Good Conscience)
1.
Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of
a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
19. Holding
faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away
concerning faith have made shipwreck:
I Peter 3:16 KJV
(Good
Conscience)
16 Having a good conscience; that,
whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed
that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.
I John 1:8,9 KJV
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and The Truth is not in us.
