Simple English

The Spirit knows all things. But the Son of God will suffer in his body. He will take on the sins of his people. He will erase their sins by the power he has to save. This is what I know to be true.

Paraphrase

The Spirit knows everything, yet the Son of God will suffer in the flesh to take on His people’s sins and erase their wrongdoings through His power to save. This is my testimony.
