Feedback SAINTS OR SINNERS? 

Forum: Messageboard
Re: Note We are NOT sinners (Keith)
Date: 2001, Oct 19
From: Ivan Ivan

Hi Keith,

I think it is natural to be aware of the fact that we are sinners just like what Apostle Paul said in 1 Tim 1:15,

   This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance,
   that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, 
   of whom I am chief.

Apostle Paul in this verse said that he IS the chief SINNER. And in the next breath, he said in Eph 3:8 that he IS the least of all the SAINTS. So, is he a sinner or a saint? I think we can see the progression here: from sinner to saint. Remember, he was converted on the road to Damascus to destroy Christians and given the heavenly vision to preach the gospel to the Gentiles which he faithfully fulfilled it.

In Christ,
