{Sermons on Ephesians 5:15
The Doctrine Explained
Precisians Are the Sort Who Are Upright in the Way
Their Uprightness with Respect to Conscience}
Thus, we have seen this exact and upright waking as it respects the commandment. Now we will consider it as it respects conscience. And thus I shall give this double description of these circumspect Christians:
They take great care of conscience73 by:
Informing and instructing conscience
Keeping conscience tender
They give good heed to conscience
73The conscience is not an infallible connection to God; it is more like a precision measuring instrument that must be preserved from damage and kept calibrated so that it will read out correctly. When it reads out correctly, the conscience gives guidance according to God’s will.
