Latin

radicalis
>We who have quit sin, and love God are

This reminds me of a story...
An evangelist has just finished preaching at a revival when a lady
approaches him to introduce herself. "I was saved at your last revival
here, seven years ago, and I want to tell you that I haven't sinned
even once since then." Without a pause, the preacher asked, "You must
be very proud?" "Yes, I am," she replied. "Too bad," continued the
evangelist. "Pride is a sin. Seven years down the tubes."

Jesus' suffering ended with his death on the cross. Where did you get
the idea that he is eternally suffering? He came back to Earth to hang
out with his disciples and others a few days after he died, did he not?
Was he suffering then? Was that not him?
