14 and the (A)grace of our Lord was more than abundant, with the (B)faith and love which are found in Christ Jesus. 15 (C)It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that (D)Christ Jesus came into the world to (E)save sinners, among whom (F)I am foremost. 16 Yet for this reason I (G)found mercy, so that in me as the foremost sinner Jesus Christ might (H)demonstrate His perfect patience as an example for those [a]who would believe in Him for eternal life.
