“I
thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who as strengthened me, because He considered me
faithful, putting me into service, even though I was formerly a blasphemer and
a persecutor and a violent aggressor.
Yet I was shown mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief; and the
grace of our Lord was more than abundant, with the faith and love which are
found in Christ Jesus.”
1
Timothy 1:12-14
This
is what the Apostle Paul said about himself.
He said that the grace of God was so abundant that He was shown
mercy.
None
of us are good enough, but God extends His mercy and forgiveness to us when we
acknowledge our sin and ask Jesus to forgive us.
We
are redeemed not because we are good, but because God is good.
