Whatever We Do Against Our Conscience Is Sinful!

Hello! and happy good Thursday to all of us; and, it's just 50 days to go before Christmas, GUYS.  Our today's "food for the soul":
 
THE GOOD NEWS (05 November 2015)
"Keep your own belief before GOD, and happy are you if you never act against your own belief.  Instead, whoever eats something in spite of his doubt is condemned by his conscience, because whatever we do against our conscience is sinful." - Romans 14:22-23 


(Whatever we do against our conscience is sinful:  an important affirmation of the liberty of conscience.  Perhaps it is often forgotten; but St. Thomas Aquinas himself reminds us that no law or religious authority should be followed against our conscience.  It is, therefore, a grave responsibility to acquire good criteria through readings, conversations, reading the Bible, knowing that the Spirit is at work in all the life of the Church.)
