Thirsting Souls Bible Teaching

 (1Ti 1:14)  “And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.”  Paul’s sincerity of heart spoke of his own wicked acts and then of God’s mercy (only the guilty need mercy). Now he is led to speak of God’s grace (favor bestowed that is not deserved). Truth: your sin brought the death of Jesus Christ. You need mercy to be saved. Truth: if the Lord does give you the gift of salvation, you receive something you do not deserve. That receiving is called “grace”.
