Bishop Barron's theology of conscience: conscience is 'the aboriginal voice of Christ'

Ben Shapiro, a Catholic Bishop and the Gospel. 00:15:48 – 00:17:20

Mike identifies a second major theological claim Barron makes beyond Vatican II

Barron teaches that the conscience is the voice of Christ, so that when one follows one's conscience sincerely one is following Christ whether one knows it or not. Mike quotes Barron directly on this. Mike says this is unbiblical — it is not the function Scripture assigns to conscience and contradicts what the New Testament teaches. He calls it 'an unchristian teaching.'
