The Lord God when He knitted us together in our mothers womb and formed our inward parts gave us a conscience, we are borne with it. Our conscience can become seared by repeatedly going against it. Despite this we all have a conscience, and therefore are without excuse. The word conscience is a two part Latin word; con means with and science means knowledge. So when we sin we do it with knowledge that it is wrong.

One who tells lies does so with knowledge that they are lying and thus they are a liar.

One who steals does so with knowledge that he is stealing and thus is a thief.

One who commits adultery does so with knowledge that they are having sex with someone other than their spouse and thus is an adulterer.

One who fornicates does so with knowledge that they are having sex outside of marriage and thus is a fornicator.

One who murders does so with knowledge that they are taking the life of a human being and thus is a murderer.

I love evangelism; nothing makes me happier than to glorify Jesus Christ through the preaching of His gospel, glorifying Him in one-on-one witnessing encounters, and glorifying Him through gospel tracts. Yes, the evangelist is mocked, reviled, ridiculed, insulted, and cursed. But you know when people hate you, and revile you, they hated Jesus first (John 15:18); so you know nothing among men but Christ and Him crucified for our sins (1 Corinthians 2:2).

The other day a woman said that Jesus was the final Word of God in this end times and then quoted Hebrews 1:1-3. So let us take a look at that now, I’m going to add in verse 4 for a complete thought.

“God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, in these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world. And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become as much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent name than they.” (Hebrews 1:1-4 NASB)

This got me to think about these things, the LORD God spoke directly to Adam but after Adam sinned he was thrown out of the garden, out of the presence of God and from that point on God spoke to Adam (man) through prophets. The Bib…
