“Awww! Mom! Dad! Everyone else is going!” Have you ever said these words? We probably have all thought that what everyone else thinks or does is just okay. So how do we know right or wrong?
It is often easy to stay away from actions that are expressly forbidden in the scriptures. But what about the times when the scriptures are silent?
Do you often feel guilty even when “everyone else is doing it?” This is why!
“—--everything that does not come from faith is a sin.” Romans 14:23b.
God gives you a conscience and he literally intends for you to let your conscience be your guide. When God shows you that something is wrong, then you should avoid it.
Going against your conscience and following the crowd will give you an uneasy, guilty feeling.
Listening to the voice of God within and acting on it will lead to peace.
Have a blessed day!
In Christian love,
