We know that God doesn’t listen to sinners, but if anyone is God-fearing and does his will, he listens to him.

even though I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an arrogant man. But I received mercy because I acted out of ignorance in unbelief,and the grace of our Lord overflowed, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.This saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance:“ Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners”— and I am the worst of them.But I received mercy for this reason, so that in me, the worst of them, Christ Jesus might demonstrate his extraordinary patience as an example to those who would believe in him for eternal life.

For if you love those who love you, what reward will you have? Don’t even the tax collectors do the same?And if you greet only your brothers and sisters, what are you doing out of the ordinary? Don’t even the Gentiles do the same?
