For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.

For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved."

He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love,

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.
