Any help would be appreciated Welcome again to Worthy, it is always important to look what God wants you to do in certain situations, if your conscience is not clear about something, confess it to God and make it right, you cannot be a happy Christian with sin on your mind,remember God hates sin because He is Holy,and if you love The Lord ,you will only want to do what is right. 1 Peter 3:16 and keep a good conscience so that in the thing in which you are slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ will be put to shame. 1 Timothy 1:19 keeping faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and suffered shipwreck in regard to their faith. Acts 24:16 "In view of this, I also do my best to maintain always a blameless conscience both before God and before men. Job 27:6 s"I hold fast my righteousness and will not let it go. My heart does not reproach any of my days. Acts 23:1 Paul, looking intently at the Council, said, "Brethren, I have lived my life with a perfectly good conscience before God up to this day." Romans 9:1 I am telling the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience testifies with me in the Holy Spirit, 2 Timothy 1:3 I thank God, whom I serve with a clear conscience the way my forefathers did, as I constantly remember you in my prayers night and day, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only build a better relationship with God if you turn away from the world ,if you know Jesus and what He did for you,you want to live for Him only , knowing that He loved you so much that He died for you so you will have life forever with your Savior!
