For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time has come for my departure. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

– Timothy 4:6-8

Christ came to serve the needs of humanity
Christ came to show the example to humanity
Christ came to sacrifice for humanity
Christ came to save the eternity of humanity
For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid but gives us power, love and self-discipline.
