Speich said for the sins of humanity, Jesus was pierced and beaten, but
Christians were not ready to make a small sacrifice for their fellows.

the world without any conditions and did not withdraw his love even in his pain
and suffering, adding; "He suffered until his death for humanity to have
life. & # 39; & # 39;

engage my spirit, "Christians, who want to inherit the Kingdom of God, should
learn to do the same. ''
