Question:
Speeding? Isn’t this as much a sin as stealing? Shouldn’t we confess this to the Lord? Why don’t we consider this bad and stop doing it?

Answer:
“Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers…the powers that be are ordained of God….Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake” (Romans 13:1,5).

There may be emergency situations when for safety’s sake we must go over the speed limit, but it is easy go over the speed limit because everyone else does, it, and get into a habit of doing it without even thinking about what we are doing. We should be before the Lord as to how fast He wants us to go each time we drive, and ask Him to convict us if we are doing wrong. It is most important that we have a CVO which is a Conscience Void of Offence. Paul told Felix: “And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a Conscience Void of Offence toward God, and toward men” (Acts 24:16). A CVO is essential for communion with God, and to be a good testimony to others.
