    He did indeed–it’s pretty significant that Paul, considered one of the greatest leaders and shapers of the Christian church, considered himself not only a sinner, but a wretched sinner at that! His brutal honesty with himself is something we should all imitate in our own lives. Even with his great work on behalf of the church, Paul still needed Jesus Christ.

“If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.”
- 1 Corinthians 13:1-3
