As a former persecutor of Christians, Paul never forgot that it was only by undeserved kindness that he could have a relationship with God at all, much less enjoy special privileges of service.
(‏ ١ كورنثوس ١٥ :‏ ٩‏ )‏ فلأنه كان مضطهدا سابقا للمسيحيين ،‏ لم ينسَ قط انه لولا النعمة لم يكن ليتمتع بعلاقة بالله او بامتيازات خدمة خصوصية .‏
