Description:: John William Eddins, Jr. was Professor of Theology at Southeastern Seminary. The service begins with a Scripture reading and a moment of prayer (0:00-1:01). Eddins begins his presentation by reading passages of Scripture from the New Testament (1:02-2:00). He shares an anecdote from his childhood to illustrate the Proverb about letting conscience being one’s guide (2:01-6:20). Eddins speaks about how Scripture views conscience, Christ, and Christian behavior (6:21-6:34). He defines conscience and speaks about how it is affected, drawing from Scripture in various New Testament books (6:35-9:15). He explains that wounding a fellow believer’s conscience is sinning against Christ and shows how a Christian’s behavior is a witness of the love of Christ (9:16-18:11). Eddins closes the service in a word of prayer (18:12-18:26).
