Paul teaches a lesson about the humanity of Jesus Christ. He explains that in order for Jesus to rescue and restore mankind back into an acceptable relationship with God again Jesus needs to live a perfect human life.

I am able to thank God for all that he has done for me and take the time to worship him through song and prayer. I know that my faith can only get stronger and that is what I intend to work
