Bible Question: I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW TAKEN FROM THE SCRIPTURE GIVEN 2TIM 1:3 HOW DOES A MINISTER KEEP A CLEAR CONSCIENCE AND WHY IS IT IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO HAVE A CLEAR CONSCIENCE?? THANK YOU! |
Bible Answer: According to the Word of God and common sense, a minister keeps a clear conscience not merely by being married (are all married people pure and moral? are all single people automatically immoral and impure?), but by maintaining moral and sexual purity whether he happens to be married, unmarried, never married, or undecided. |
