I Timothy 1:15-16  -  “This is a true saying, and everyone should believe it: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners - and I was the worst of them all.  But that is why God had mercy on me,

so that Christ Jesus could use me as a prime example of his great patience with even the worst sinners.  Then others will realize that they, too, can believe in him and receive eternal life.”

Romans 3:22   -  “We are made right in God’s sight when we trust Jesus Christ to take away our sins.  And we all can be saved in this same way, no matter who we are or what we have done.”
