As was true in Paul’s case, it is only by undeserved kindness that humans can come into a relationship with God at all, much less serve him in some privileged capacity. ​ — Romans 3: 12, 24.
( Salamans Mācītājs 9: 2.) Mums, tāpat kā Pāvilam, jāatzīst, ka attiecības ar Dievu — nemaz nerunājot par īpašām kalpošanas privilēģijām — ir iespējamas tikai Dieva žēlastības dēļ.
