Your sins are deep.

Lost in darkness, you have no hope of salvation,
until you stand before the blade of justice.

Each of you, without exception, has dishonored the sanctity of your soul.

But God, in his infinite mercy, gives you one chance for redemption.

I come to cleanse you of your sins, to take your life in the name of the Lord.

Submit to my justice!

Every cut of my holy blade is an act of mercy, a fire that will burn your sins and through suffering lead you on the path of salvation.

At the moment of death, cleansed by pain, you will find peace in the embrace of God.

In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit,
look upon your salvation through death.

Amen.
