God does not ask us to convince anyone of anyone anywhere. Not like that anyway, you can preach peacefully and live the gospel.

If we do this and we stick to our convictions, then other people will see it too and they will respect our relationship with God as well as our authority as Christ’s ambassadors and messengers of the good news. And not a group of people pressuring into taking up a belief they do not like or understand.
