Titus 3:4-7

But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love for mankind appeared,  he saved us   #— #not by works of righteousness that we had done,  but according to his mercy   #— #through the washing of regeneration  and renewal by the Holy Spirit.  He poured out his Spirit on us abundantly  through Jesus Christ our Savior so that, having been justified by his grace,  we may become heirs with the hope of eternal life.
