1Tim 1:14 And the grace of our Lord was exceedingly abundant, with faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.
Not to derive too much theology from this one verse, more precisely word-for-word from the Greek this says
"But exceeding abundantly was that grace of our Lord Jesus, with faith and the love in Christ Jesus."
In Paul's case God's grace is particularly shown as exceedingly abundant - not only saving him, but calling him into apostleship. But faith is to accompany grace, as also is love, being an outworking of one's faith in Christ. |
