The Proof That Convinces

What people see is more convincing than what they hear. Therefore it is what they see of the power of Christ in men's lives, rather than what they are told about it, that convinces them. The inventor who can show a successful working model of his invention, will convince others of its success where a 10,000-word explanation, no matter how clear and reasonable, would leave them skeptical. “A man who lives right and is right has more power in his silence than another has by his words,” said Phillips Brooks.—Sunday School Times.
