14 The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
14 and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
14 Grace mixed with faith and love poured over me and into me. And all because of Jesus.
14 And the grace of our Lord was exceedingly abundant, with faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.
14 Oh, how generous and gracious our Lord was! He filled me with the faith and love that come from Christ Jesus.

15 Everybody here sends greetings. Please give my greetings to the believers-all who love us. May God's grace be with you all.
(Read Titus 3:12-15)
Christianity is not a fruitless profession; and its professors must be filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God. They must be doing good, as well as keeping away from evil. Let "ours" follow some honest labour and employment, to provide for themselves and their families. Christianity obliges all to seek some honest work and calling, and therein to abide with God. The apostle concludes with expressions of kind regard and fervent prayer. Grace be with you all; the love and favour of God, with the fruits and effects thereof, according to need; and the increase and feeling of them more and more in your souls. This is the apostle's wish and prayer, showing his affection to them, and desire for their good, and would be a means of obtaining for them, and bringing down on them, the thing requested. Grace is the chief thing to be wished and prayed for, with respect to ourselves or others; it is "all good."
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 1 Timothy 1:14
Commentary on 1 Timothy 1:12-17
(Read 1 Timothy 1:12-17)
The apostle knew that he would justly have perished, if the Lord had been extreme to mark what was amiss; and also if his grace and mercy had not been abundant to him when dead in sin, working faith and love to Christ in his heart. This is a faithful saying; these are true and faithful words, which may be depended on, That the Son of God came into the world, willingly and purposely to save sinners. No man, with Paul's example before him, can question the love and power of Christ to save him, if he really desires to trust in him as the Son of God, who once died on the cross, and now reigns upon the throne of glory, to save all that come to God through him. Let us then admire and praise the grace of God our Saviour; and ascribe to the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, three Persons in the unity of the Godhead, the glory of all done in, by, and for us.
