Part 2 of the "Developing a Healthy Conscience" series describes the positive changes that happen in our consciences at conversion, but why the new baby conscience still needs to be strengthened, and what happens when it isn't. Dr. Kayser expounds Paul's teaching on how to both make sure weaker brothers are protected in their conscience, *and* that the church be protected from the legalistic doctrine of the weaker brothers. He shows what happens when the three functions of the conscience become sensitized to man's opinions rather than to God's opinion, how to help rather than hurt brothers with weak consciences, and also how and when weaker-brother-ism becomes Phariseeism.

If you pray and fast for God's leading, what do you expect that leading to look or sound like? It's possible to place so much emphasis on the only *objective* rule of life — Scripture — that we can struggle to understand the role of the *subjective* in God's leading. Does God still speak to Christians individually, and if so, how? How do we expect (or *do* we expect?) God to give us individualized guidance? How are we supposed to determine our individual calling (or is it just up to us to choose)? How are we supposed to interpret or evaluate stirrings, burdens, peace, illumination, or checks of the spirit? In this 3-part series, Dr. Kayser digs into the much-neglected role of the *subjective* side of God's leading. In part 1, laying the theological foundations, he: - explains the difference between inspiration and revelation - gives 13 Scriptural examples of how God continues to give subjective (not inspired) revelation, including the law written on the heart, faith, assurance, conviction, and illumination - and explains the different ongoing roles of Scripture, circumstances and providence, and the Spirit's presence and leading in our lives.
