In honor of the day
The only reason for my being killed is that I have taught the doctrine of
Christ. I thank God it is for this reason that I die. I believe that I am
telling the truth before I die. I know you believe me and I want to say to you
all once again: Ask Christ to help you become happy. I obey Christ. After
Christ's example, I forgive my persecutors. I do not hate them. I ask God to
have pity on all, and I hope my blood will fall on my fellow men as a fruitful
rain.
