Conscience

Conscience has been succinctly described as the "soul distinguishing between what is morally good and bad, prompting to do the former and shun the latter."

Webster defines conscience as 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.

Hypocrisy-Hypocrites

QUOTES, ILLUSTRATIONS, DEVOTIONALS

It is but a short step from the critical to the hypocritical.   Anon.

A hypocrite has God on his tongue and the world in his heart.

A hypocrite is a person who isn't himself on Sunday. 

A hypocrite prays on his knees on Sunday and preys on his neighbors on Monday.

If we pray to catch the ear of man, we can't expect to reach the ear of God. 

Longer prayers in public usually mean shorter prayers in private. 

How we behave reveals what we truly believe.
