"How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!" Hebrews 9:14
Our consciences can both affirm or condemn us. The writer of Hebrews says that we need our consciences cleansed from deeds that lead to death. Often we are told that these are evil deeds that we do but more likely they are the good deeds that we do in the flesh. Many times we trust in our good deeds rather than in the blood of Christ. Our consciences often condemn us because we are not doing enough good deeds but we need to remember that there is never enough and that is why we need to have our consciences cleansed.
Have we repented of our good deeds?
