The Question of Conscience: Building a Christian Conscience with R.C. Sproul

Summary

The sermon addresses the concept of conscience, contrasting the classical/biblical view of it as a God-implanted moral compass with the modern relativistic perspective that sees it as mere societal conditioning. Scripture from the Apostle Paul and verses from the New Testament on conscience are discussed, highlighting its role in accusation and defense, but ultimately asserting that conscience is not the final ethical authority. The practical takeaway is that true guilt signals a violation of God's law, and the remedy for this guilt is found in God's forgiveness.
