According to Chapter 12, how does the role of a saint differ from the typical purpose of a divine incarnation?

πŸ“– Chapter 12

Chapter 12 explains that while a divine incarnation is traditionally for the protection of the virtuous and the destruction of the wicked, saints are uniquely distinct. The text states that to saints, the virtuous and the wicked are equal, and they do not differentiate between great and small. Their primary focus is to set the wicked on the right path out of immense compassion. In this sense, as Chapter 12 describes, saints are considered even greater than God because their love overflows for the distressed, and they work to reform rather than just destroy evil.
