It can also imply having confidence or trust in something or someone. In the New Testament, it is often used in contexts where individuals are persuaded to believe in the Gospel or to trust in God. The term can also reflect a sense of obedience that comes from being convinced or assured.Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, rhetoric and persuasion were highly valued skills, especially in public speaking and philosophical discourse. The ability to persuade was seen as a mark of wisdom and intelligence. In the context of the early Christian church, persuasion was a critical tool for spreading the Gospel and establishing the faith among diverse populations. The apostles and early Christians often engaged in persuasive dialogue to explain and defend their beliefs.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div>3982 peíthō(the root of <a href="/greek/4102.htm">4102</a> /pístis, "faith") – to persuade; (passive) be persuaded of what is trustworthy.
