but he will die for his convictions.There is a vast difference between holding a belief and entering into a conviction. One is a matter of the intellect, the other a matter of the will. One says, "I am convinced." The other says, "I am committed." A man may argue for his beliefs, but he will die for his convictions. A belief is something held in the hand. If the pressure is great enough, if the storm is fierce enough, a belief may become dislodged from the grip and slip away in the current. A conviction, however, is held in the heart. It is stitched into the fabric of one's very being. No pressure, no storm - no matter how violent- can destroy a conviction without destroying something of the one who holds it. A conviction is nothing more than a belief with its boots on...ready to march, ready to fight, ready to die.- from Introduction to Daniel
