Those who are of the elect like Paul, because Christ has put away their sins by His offering of Himself, and redeemed them from all iniquity, God has Mercy on them for their ignorance and unbelief 1 Tim 1:13
13 Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
In Grace Pauls hate for Christ and unbelief was exchanged for Faith and Love Vs 14
14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
and thats the Pattern for all Gods elect in unbelief Vs 16
16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
