God has given everyone a conscience to know Him. There is a knowing in every human being. God said He will put His law in our inward parts. And write it in their hearts. (Jer: 31:33). This knowing, we shall know the truth and it shall set us free. The enemy can down from heaven and had a fit and tore up the world. Planning seed’s of evil, starting in the garden with Adam and Eve, knowing his time is very short. Nevertheless, our God had a perfect plan, it was Calvary. Also in His word he let us know that this enemy came to kill, steal and destroy. Although that’s what he is doing, true believers know that God is still in control. Although it might not look like we are winning, we know that God has already won the victory.

The book of Proverbs is full of morals, and principles teaching us the way of
Coming from the point where humans were created in God’s image, it follows that they have the ability to distinguish between right and wrong. From the rules of conduct given to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden to the Ten Commandments given to the Israelites, we see that God throughout history has prescribed what is considered right and what is wrong. Jesus summarized these commandments as loving God and loving our neighbors in Matthew 22:37- 40. Similarly, the fact that we were created in God’s image means that we have an inner ability to know what is wrong and right – conscience (Romans 2:15).
"All of it is clear to a person who has understanding and right to those who have acquired knowledge." (Proverbs 8:6-9)
As stated in the “SPJ Code of Ethics”, a journalists tenet is to “Seek Truth and Report It”, in other words, to “use original sources when possible”, to “gather, update and correct information throughout the life of a news story”, and to “avoid stereotyping”. Sarah Koenig tries her best to adhere to this ethic by constantly contacting people that could be of importance to the case. Everything she does to provide the listener with up-to-date first hand information makes her seem as a dedicated journalist, however there are instances that make it hard for Koenig to fallow this tenet.
To know what is right morally we as Christians should develop a Biblical worldview. A biblical worldview is one that states that God exists, he created everything in the universe and still watches over that universe now. The Bible is absolute moral truth and Jesus lived a perfect sinless life. He died on the cross for mankind’s sins and the gift of salvation cannot be
Ever since the early 17th century, the Jews in Philadelphia have been striving to become an important part of the American society, while staying true to their roots. Although the Jews faced exile from their homelands of Portugal and Spain, they were able to build and sustain a strong Jewish community within Philadelphia and pave the way for future generations through extensive actions throughout the community. They built hundreds of Jewish schools, Community Centres, synagogues and established many congregations.

Companies paying for a native advertisement might have certain expectations, but not all of them can be fulfilled. Journalists working in the native advertising sector of any publication should consult to the ethical guidelines concerning acting independently. The SPJ Code of Ethics encourages journalists to resist internal and external pressures that might influence coverage. News organizations should be comfortable in drawing the line when it comes to producing native advertisements and not be intimidated into blurring that line. If the editorial staff of The New York Times stepped in during the creative process of the Airbnb advertisement, they might have had a chance to eliminate the obvious promotion of the company. This would have reduced

Therefore, I think it is only fair to treat them with a higher standard. Also living by a strict moral code will only make teens lie even more. There are just so many things that we can’t tell our parents and having more rules

Morally, morals, standards, are they the same for all people. Are these words interchangeable or not? Does morally change overtime or just our perspective of morally. Are most societies based on a morally standard that gotten corrupted over time, or is society not based on morals but people add morals to society?

There are two difficult points of view when one is dealing with moral rules. The first difficulty is if one is to obey God’s rule they should completely understand the meaning behind it. The second difficulty is if one found an exception to a rule this would make the rule does not apply. However, some may say that an exception would prove the rule. In order to make the right moral decision, it is important for one’s to use judgment in each situation (O’Donovan,
Over the last 100 years, the manners and morals of the American society have shifted tremendously. The sudden change in the ways people relate, more so the moral codes of men and women have been attributed to the revolution by the successive “younger generations.” As such, it would appear as though the moral code continues to become weaker with the inception of every new generation. The revolution of the manner and morals can be traced to the 1920’s, and most of the blame for the depreciating moral code has been placed on the woman and the girl child. The society seems to have been better with the women being the custodian of the moral codes. However, the woman and the girl child has become a significant force of the revolution that has compromised the entire moral code of conduct and manners, and this is used as the major reason for the moral decay that is witnessed in the contemporary world.
Discerning the right choice can be described, in its simplest form, as following the rules, however, there is no one set of rules—rather these rules can be composed of various sources such as religious texts, legal codes, and philosophy—and it is important to consider multiple sources to effectively determine what is right. These many sources offer various perspectives on what is right such as the Bible’s Ten Commandments and Kant’s rule of universality (199). Using multiple sources for this lens can help one see the nuances of ethical dilemmas and offer a clearer perspective on what is right. Maintaining one source of rules as the highest set of ethical norms can result in unethical decision. For example, “the law is not the sole repository of a society’s moral standards and values, even when the law is directly concerned with moral problems” (Beauchamp and Bowie 4). Turning only to
