Why do we try to make people do what we say, rather than what God wants?

Don’t jeopardize yourself with God, for man. God is greater than man.

Acts:5:29 (KJV) – then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.

Job 33:12 (KJV) – behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.
