1Jo 3:20 | MHM | STEP | The Testimony of Conscience. In this section, John talks about the role of our conscience, or our inner sense of right and wrong, in our relationship with God. He explains that our conscience can either accuse us or give us confidence. But above all, God is the final judge, and he knows everything about us. John also shows that when we have a clear conscience and obey God, we can be confident that God hears our prayers. v. 20 : John says, If our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things (1 John 3:20 ). Our conscience is like a judge inside us. It helps us see if we are doing right or wrong. But even if our conscience makes us feel guilty, God knows even more about us than we do. He is the true Judge, and his knowledge is perfect (Proverbs 20:27; 1 Corinthians 4:4 ). Sometimes our conscience can make mistakes, but God’s judgment is always right.

The Testimony of Conscience.

In this section, John talks about the role of our conscience, or our inner sense of right and wrong, in our relationship with God. He explains that our conscience can either accuse us or give us confidence. But above all, God is the final judge, and he knows everything about us. John also shows that when we have a clear conscience and obey God, we can be confident that God hears our prayers.

v. 20: John says, If our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things (1 John 3:20 ^a). Our conscience is like a judge inside us. It helps us see if we are doing right or wrong. But even if our conscience makes us feel guilty, God knows even more about us than we do. He is the true Judge, and his knowledge is perfect (Proverbs 20:27; 1 Corinthians 4:4 ^b). Sometimes our conscience can make mistakes, but God’s judgment is always right.
