The accusations of conscience evidence the omniscience and the holiness of God; the terrors of conscience, the justice of God; the approbations of conscience, the goodness of God.

Stephen Charnock — Stephen Charnock, Discourses upon the Existence and Attributes of God, Discourse I "On the Existence of God" (public-domain Gutenberg text of the nineteenth-century edition; near page marker {a73}).
