1:12 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry; 1:13 Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did [it] ignorantly in unbelief. 1:14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. 1:15 This [is] a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. 1:16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting. I will never get over what Jesus has done for me. The verses perfectly describe the awe that floods my soul because God has seen fit to use me. I cannot explain it. I do not understand it. But God in His infinite wisdom and mercy has used me as an example, a pattern that He is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentence. For 29 years I wandered as a lost man, but now I know that one day I will see my redeemer face to face. Not only has He saved me, but He has called me into His work. Not only has He called me into His work, but He has given me a place to do it. Like Paul, I obtained mercy. Praise the Lord! Jesus is sitting beside the Father waiting for you to call on Him. He is patient and has all the time in the world. Question is, how much time do you have? Call on Him while you can... Just a sinner saved by grace, Brother Chris |

If you study the works of Calvin, I am quite certain you will be convinced.....okay, maybe that's a bit of a stretch! But I am sure it will give you something to think about. I am blogging from Ocean City Maryland this week, no alligators here :) |
