2 Corinthians 1:12

Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.

Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:

I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.

But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.

Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly.

And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.

The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:

And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men.

Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.

But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:

When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea yea, and nay nay?

Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.

But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.

I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,

That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;

Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
