God's answer to your guilty conscience is the death of his Son. Your answer to a guilty conscience is usually something you do, like confessing harder, praying more, reading your Bible, paying more than your tithe in the offering and so on.

I'll read my Bible but won't forgive the person who hurt me. Yet partial obedience is disobedience. — Rick Warren
