God gave us all a conscience. Even if you do not know God, you do something bad and you know it. So how can knowing God make a difference? Without God, conscience is weak and gets overridden easily. As we sin more and more, our conscience gets smothered more and more. Once you know God and desire not to sin against him anymore, he clears up and sharpens your conscience to help you grow holier. The more you are drawn into God, the less attractive the world becomes. When you attain union with the Lord, you lose all your desire to sin and don't even need your conscience anymore, for the Lord is in and with you at all times. Now you just enjoy his presence.
