Bible Note: Greetings - I'm leaving your current question up on 1 Tim 1:15 - "Can you believe this?" but would offer this answer to you. As I continue to walk with the Lord, choosing to enjoy His fellowship I find that I have a greater appreciation for His MERCY. I recognize the depth of my sin and the gravity of it as I contemplate His holiness. I am amazed by His grace and love for me and have a better understanding of Paul when he declared that among sinners, he is the foremost or chief. THIS, I think is the point of that verse. That we too would relinquish our pride in sin - is anyone as bad as Adolph Hitler or Osama Ben Laden. . . and realize that indeed we are! Well, these are my thoughts. The question is not "can" we believe but DO we believe this? Blessings, mommapbs |
