Patience in Witness

Our Lord was never impatient. He simply planted seed thoughts. ... We get impatient and take men by the scruff of the neck and say, "You must believe this and that." You cannot make anyone see moral truth by persuading his intellect. "When he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he shall guide you into all truth" (John 16:13).
