The suffering of the righteous is always necessary to help pay for the sins of others that are less righteous.

This has to be one of the most unChristian, uneducated, and foolish statements I have ever read.

1) All sins have been paid for at the Cross. The payment made was His spiritual death.

That’s why we have martyrs that are willing to die for their faith. Their heroism makes up in some way for what is lacking in the rest of us.

Wrong again.

MARTUS

Of uncertain affinity; a witness (literally [judicially] or figuratively [generally]); by analogy a “martyr”: - martyr, record, witness.

Suffering is a different issue from being a witness.

A witness who endures numerous tests might be veritable. Suffering is frequently promoted by those who dislike a witness testimony in order to dissuade the testimony from being given, but in no way does suffering change the truth of a witness, nor is it required for the witness to be true.
