O’Neill, N<ebr. “Co:ci.scIe:inLce_” One of the faculties with which the creator endowed the soul of man is the faculty by which he distinguishes between right and wrong, and which commands and obligates him to do the right and avoid the wrong. We call this faculty conscience. Without it man could not be held to account for his actions. Conscience, however, in its natural state is not what it is intended to be. Like other faculties of the soul it is in need of enlightment. A perverted conscience may make a man a criminal. The example of the Apostle Paul proves this. Be fore his conversion he considered it a matter of conscience to do many things-contrary to the name of Jesus, and he did them. And when he was instrumental in shutting the Christians in prison and putting them to death, his conscience approved the act. A perverted conscience made him a criminal or, as he puts it, the “chief of sinners.” After his conversion his conscience smote him for doing these very things, for persecuting the church of God and wasting it. Gal. 1, 13. Now where is the enlightenment and training of conscience to be done? It would be regetable, indeed, if this work were relegated to the home and church exclusively, while the school gave attention only or at least preferably to the intellectual side of man. The knowledge imparted by the school may be as useful to a villian as to an honest man. Therefore conscience must teach and impel a man to make the right use of his knowledge. The development of character is an im possibility without the development of conscience. What means have we to develop conscience? We have the ten commandments, the moral law, as interpreted in the Sermon on the Mount. These commandments are the standard. They teach that it is right to love the Lord, our God, and to serve Him with all our heart and with all our soul. Deut. 11, 13, and that this is the great commandment in the law. They further teach that it is wrong and wicked to disobey or despise parents or masters, to in flict bodily harm or hurt upon our fellownian, to lead a lewd and in temporate life, to steal and cheat, to belie, slander and defame our neighbor; but that it is right anl our duty to promote the temporal and spiritual welfare of our neighbor in every way possible. A con science taught and nurtured in these commandments is brought up to the standard, it is dependable, it is in truth the voice of God and the vice-gerent of God in the soul of man. What our country needs above all in these trying times is the 'loyalty of its citizens. With this it stands, without it, it falls. Now loyalty may be a matter of sentiment, a matter of prudence. There is reason to believe that in not a few cases it is a matter of dollars and cents. It should be a matter of conscience, a sacred duty. That is what St. Paul makes it when, exhorting to obedience to constituted government, he enjoins the Christians; “Wherefore you must needs be subject, not only for wrath (fear of punishment), but also for con science sake.” Rom. 13, 5. It is, therefore, just as wrong and wicked to be disloyal, to refuse to render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, as it is to steal, to commit murder, arson or any other crime. What we need in times of peace as well as war is not more highly educated men and women. We have a plenty of them in this our country whose proudest boast is that it is studded with schools. What we need is more conscientious men and women whose lives exemplify the teachings of the Bible, and are an object lesson in all Christian virtues. We shall not have them, unless we give to conscience the due amount of teaching and training to keep it right when it is right, to set it right when it is wrong, and to make it a commanding and im pelling force. That conscience may be a mighty force in man, there is no doubt. What gave to the apostles Peter and John, unlearned and ignorant men in the eyes of the Council of Jerusalem, the boldness to stand (Continued on page six.)
