16 In this respect, indeed, I am exercising myself continually to have a consciousness+ of committing no offense against God and men.

12 For the thing we boast of is this, to which our conscience bears witness,+ that with holiness and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom+ but with God’s undeserved kindness, we have conducted ourselves in the world, but more especially toward YOU.

3 I am grateful to God, to whom I am rendering sacred service*+ as my forefathers+ did and with a clean conscience,+ that I never leave off remembering you in my supplications,+ night and day

18 Carry on prayer+ for us, for we trust we have an honest conscience, as we wish to conduct ourselves honestly in all things.+

16 Hold a good conscience,+ so that in the particular in which YOU are spoken against they may get ashamed+ who are speaking slightingly of YOUR good conduct in connection with Christ.+
