Mercy stands at the very heart of God's character and the Christian faith. It is more than a divine attribute; it is the very atmosphere of the Kingdom, a force that drives God's interactions with humanity and a gift that transforms the hearts of those who receive it. This book is a journey through the theology of mercy, uncovering the many dimensions of God's compassion as revealed throughout Scripture, from Genesis to Revelation.
Here, you'll encounter the biblical tapestry of mercy, woven with threads of grace, justice, forgiveness, sacrifice, and reconciliation. We begin by examining mercy's core meaning, where grace and justice meet to form the foundation of God's relationship with humanity. Mercy is both the gentle touch of a father and the mighty power of a king. It reflects God's unending commitment to humanity, evident in His creation, His covenants, His law, and ultimately, His Son, Jesus Christ.
