9realizingG3609 the factG3778 that 1lawG3551 is not madeG2749 for a righteousG1342 personG1342 but for those who are lawlessG459 and 2rebelliousG506, for the 3ungodlyG765 and sinnersG268, for the unholyG462 and 4worldlyG952, for thoseG3970 whoG3970 killG3970G3389 their fathersG3970 orG2532 mothersG3389, for murderersG409, 10for the 56sexuallyG4205 immoralG4205, 7homosexualsG733, 89slaveG405 tradersG405, 10liarsG5583, 11perjurersG1965, and whateverG1487G5100 elseG2087 is contraryG480 to 12soundG5198 teachingG1319, 11accordingG2596 to 13the gloriousG1391 gospelG2098 of 14the blessedG3107 GodG2316, with whichG3739 I have been 15entrustedG4100.

12I thankG5485 16ChristG5547 JesusG2424 our LordG2962, who has 17strengthenedG1743 me, becauseG3754 He consideredG2233 me faithfulG4103, 18puttingG5087 me into serviceG1248, 13even though I was previouslyG4387 a blasphemerG989 and a 19persecutorG1376 and a violentG5197 aggressorG5197. YetG235 I was 20shownG1653 mercyG1653 becauseG3754 21I actedG4160 ignorantlyG50 in unbeliefG570; 14and the 22graceG5485 of our LordG2962 was moreG5250 thanG5250 abundantG5250, with the 23faithG4102 and loveG26 which are found in ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 1524It is a trustworthyG4103 statementG3056, deservingG514 fullG3956 acceptanceG594, that 25ChristG5547 JesusG2424 cameG2064 into the worldG2889 to 26saveG4982 sinnersG268, among whomG3739 27I amG1510 foremostG4413. 16YetG235 for thisG3778 reasonG1223 I 28foundG1653 mercyG1653, soG2443 thatG2443 in me as the foremostG4413 sinner JesusG2424 ChristG5547 might 29demonstrateG1731 His perfectG537 patienceG3115 as an exampleG5296 for thoseG3588 30who wouldG3195 believeG4100 in Him for eternalG166 lifeG2222. 17NowG1161 to the 31KingG935 32eternalG165, 33immortalG862, 34invisibleG517, the 35onlyG3441 GodG2316, 36be honorG5092 and gloryG1391 37foreverG165 and everG165. AmenG281.
