1 TIMOTHY 1:15 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.”
The saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners — and I am the foremost of them — this trustworthy saying (logos pistos) likely represents early creedal material, emphasizing incarnation's soteriological purpose. Paul's self-designation as protocharmatōn (foremost) positions him not above but beneath other believers.
