It’s not enough to “follow your heart”

• The conscience can be misled and even deadened.
• Therefore, each person has a lifelong responsibility to form and inform his or her conscience.
• God will not blame anyone for harm that may result from a wrong judgment of conscience.
• But He will blame those who neglect to ensure their hearts are pure and wise.
