1 Timothy 1:15 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.
1 Timothy 3:1 This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
2 Timothy 2:11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:
Proverbs 22:20 Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and knowledge,
This saying about the advantage of godliness is true, and worthy to be received of all men. See the notes on 1Ti 1:15, where the same words are applied to the great proposition of the gospel: That Christ came into the world to save sinners. That Christ came into the world to save sinners, and that such sinners as from ungodly will become godly, and persevere in the practice of godliness, shall be happy in this life, and saved in the life to come, are two faithful and remarkable sayings, worthy the acceptation of all reasonable creatures.
