1 Timothy 1:14-16

14and athe grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the bfaith and love that are in Christ Jesus. 15The saying is ctrustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus dcame into the world to save sinners, eof whom I am the foremost. 16But I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience as an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life.
