Gratitude for Mercy

 

 

1 Timothy 1:12-20

 

 

12 Therefore I thank him which hath made me strong, that is, Christ Jesus our Lord, for he counted me faithful, and put me in his service;

 

13 When before I was a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and an oppressor, but I was received to mercy, for I did it ignorantly through unbelief.

 

14 But the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love, which is in Christ Jesus.

 

15 This is a true saying, and by all means worthy to be received, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.

 

16 Notwithstanding, for this cause was I received to mercy, that Jesus Christ should first shew on me all longsuffering unto the example of them, which shall in time to come believe in him unto eternal life.

 

17 Now unto the King everlasting, immortal, invisible, unto God only wise, be honor and glory, forever, and ever, Amen.

 

18 This commandment commit I unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies, which went before upon thee, that thou by them shouldest fight a good fight,

 

19 Having faith and a good conscience, which some have put away, and as concerning faith, have made shipwreck.

 

20 Of whom is Hymenaeus, and Alexander, whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they might learn not to blaspheme.
