Interesting point. I don't disagree. However is it possible to let convictions get between themselves and God? What I mean is can a person look at things too closely and 'feel convicted' when in actuality God might not be convicting that person. I know people that won't eat at Applebees cause they have a TV and a bar, but yet will watch tons of tv. How does that measure out? I believe that it is possible to have so many convicitons that those convictions are worshipped more than God Himself. Too heavenly minded and no earthly good.
