And Paul, looking intently at the council, said, "Brethren, I have lived my life before God in all good conscience up to this day."

I am speaking the truth in Christ, I am not lying; my conscience bears me witness in the Holy Spirit,

I thank God, whom I serve with a clear conscience the way my forefathers did, as I constantly remember you in my prayers night and day.

And corresponding to that, baptism now saves younot the removal of dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God for a good consciencethrough the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
