The Difference Between Guilt and Conviction

What's the difference between guilt and conviction? Well, guilt is the demonic counterfeit of conviction, which does not lead to repentance. Moreover, it actually drives people away from God. Conviction on the other hand is a sign of God's loving kindness that leads to repentance. It actually draws us closer to Him. And incidentally, for those who employ guilt to get people to do things, you're actually doing the very thing the devil does to people all the time.
