Au Roi éternel, immortel, invisible et seul Dieu, soient honneur et gloire pour toujours! Amen. La grâce de Dieu a agi en Paul et l'a complètement transformé, lui qui n'avait pas seulement persécuté l'Église, mais qui avait insulté le Christ. Dieu l'a pris en pitié. Grâce à Jésus-Christ, Dieu appelle de même tous les êtres humains à se convertir et à croire en lui.
