Context
“What percentage of your personal income do you donate to good deeds? What percentage of your personal income do you donate to church? Do you know that when a sinner suffers on the Earth, he pays off his debts; when a righteous man suffers on the Earth, he makes savings? I realize that God is love when: Should Christian Churches unite? Do you know that God can grant you remission of any sin, if you repent sincerely and confess it? Are you a good man? Have the representatives of anti-Christian sect Jehovah's Witnesses ever bothered you?”
