Having declared that he stands before them with a clear conscience before God, Paul begins his defense before the Jewish leaders. After accepting a rebuke for unwittingly challenging the high priest for commanding him to be struck, Paul then intentionally creates a division among the Pharisees and Sadducees in the crowd by proclaiming his belief in the resurrection of the dead. “For Sadducees say that there is no resurrection—and no angel or spirit; but the Pharisees confess both” (Acts 2:8 NKJV).
In today’s message, Pastor Kevin expounds on what it means to have a clear conscience before God and men. Drawing from other Scriptures, he answers questions including: What is the standard? How can a sinful people ever have a clear conscience? Believers in Jesus know we have been forgiven from the penalty of sin, but what do we do when we still sin? Why is it important to be always in the Scriptures so that God can be continually renewing our minds?
