How does Chapter 12 contrast the way saints and God's incarnations deal with wicked people?

Chapter 12 draws a clear distinction in how these figures approach the wicked. It states that the purpose of a divine incarnation is for the "protection of the virtuous and the complete destruction of the wicked." In stark contrast, saints are presented as being "uniquely distinct" and even "greater than God" in this respect. According to the chapter, saints do not differentiate between the virtuous and the wicked, treating them as equals. Instead of destruction, saints prioritize setting the wicked on the right path, their hearts breaking with compassion for the distressed. Their approach is one of compassionate reformation rather than punitive destruction.
