So continuing with the first chapter of I Timothy, you immediately have a list of sins that makes the law not that great. In fact the law was made for those who sin. However, Paul himself says he can testify that though you are condemned under the law, God's mercy is stronger.
The main point that Paul is trying to get across here can be said plainly. "Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief." Jesus has so much longsuffering and is willing to be there for us no matter what we go through, or do to ourselves.
This is a place where I am study God's Word for myself. I am a bit of a historian so also including some research into the culture of the times and people that I come across as I read the Bible will be here too. This is just a way for me to share what I learn with others as well as feel like I am being held accountable for keeping up with my devotions. I am lazy by nature and need that small check and balance.
