“We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves” (Rom. 15:11We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves. (Romans 15:1)).
To press our own convictions is neither the divine nor the human way to convince: not the human, because will only provokes will and defers the end we most desire; not the divine, because it is not the way of faith either on our part or on theirs whom we hurry. How much better to walk in faith and leave God room to act! He can and will give efficacy (effectiveness) to His own grace and truth.
