If Bill gave in on this point without being convinced, he would sin against his own conscience. Whatsoever is not of faith is sin. It sounds very pious and steadfast to call him to repent, but he would have to sin in order to do what we ask at this point. | The WCF at 28.5 states that it is "a great sin to contemn or neglect this ordinance."
