“Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost.” I Tim 1:15b (ESV) Paul called this a “saying”, apparently used in the early church. Whenever we are struck by our sins and sinfulness we can recall this saying from the early church. Of course, we should allow remorse and repentance to come over us when we sin. But afterwards you can remind yourself that Jesus came to save sinners including the foremost sinners. So if you are a sinner then you are qualified to be saved!
Application: Put your name in the verse and repeat 3 times.
