Under Gods Command
Proverbs 28:17-18 A man tormented by the guilt of murder will be a fugitive till death; let no one support him. (18) He whose walk is blameless is kept safe, but he whose ways are perverse will suddenly fall.
A sinner’s conscience will drive him either into guilt resulting in repentance or to death itself because of a refusal to repent. It is no act of kindness to try to make him feel better; the more guilt he feels, the more likely he is to turn to God and repent. If we interfere with the natural consequences of his act, we may make it easier for him to continue in sin.
