You can say that again. Putting your flesh on the line with zero regard for self preservation is a whole ‘nuther level of “belief”.
Makes me happy to see it on a certain level.
They (or I guess I should say “we” as I’m Eastern Christian) view sainthood in the here and now as a calling and something one can achieve in this life.
It’s pretty hardcore. I have no fear of being a saint in this life, but some of my co religionists sure are working on it.
