1 Timothy 1:15 — The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost.
NB — "to save sinners"; NOT "to provide salvation for sinners," NOR "to make salvation available to sinners," NOR, STILL LESS, "to enable sinners to save themselves"...

...but "to save sinners."

EXCELLENT !!!
