Scripture
This is a trustworthy saying, and everyone should accept it- “Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners.” And I am the worst of them all.
Observation
Paul was once a blasphemer of Christ and a persecutor of the church. Christ set him free from his sin so that he turned from persecutor to disciple to apostle.
There is no one that God cannot save. There is no sinner beyond His power to redeem, as long as they are willing to accept His mercy.
Paul became a sign of hope to everyone so that they too can repent and receive the gift of eternal life.
Application
Nobody is beyond God's ability to save- except for their own refusal to receive God's gift.
We must not give up on people.
Keep praying,loving and sharing the Good News.
Prayer
Thank you Lord that your love is stronger than sin. Your love takes hold of even the worst of sinners. Amen.
