God showed mercy toward sinners in that he became sin for us.

Used to have a challenge understanding how God who is pure Love and the notion of hell fit together...not any longer...hell is a man made thing, it is the consequence of the original sin and the resistance to repent

mercy

262 times in the bible

how does this word fit into your theology?

how do you use this word?

The mercy of the Eternal Almighty is shown to all the creatures including all mankind. His grace however is specific and is shown only to the heirs of grace. The children of promise.

Psalm 145:9 KJV 1756

mercy is a huge part of my theology

without it I haven't got a chance

so many think we earn our salvation
where did that come from?
we don't teach that
we don't believe that
so
why don't they believe us?

Roman Catholicism does not teach Election by Grace Eph. 1:4-11 as the Bible does.

But, instead they do teach that if you follow all the mandates, and partake
of all the sacraments of that said church that you will be saved.

Or the worst is that you will end up in purgatory and will be prayed out of it
by the indulgences [money] paid for on your behalf of loved ones who made
a monetary contribution to that said church who promised to pray you out of it.

Just another antichrist religious sect!

Mercy is gettin what I need (desperately).
Grace is gettin what I didn't deserve.

Grace saves the lost but when God gives mercy it's because of how pathetic we are in and of ourselves. Like trying to avoid hitting a bird while driving. Man, the birds just trying to get a crumb. Least you can do is not blow him all over the road man. Come on!

No. It's because God has chosen them in Christ before the foundation of the world to be His Adopted Sons! Eph. 1:4-11.

It has nothing to do with what they are of themselves. But only with regard to His Purpose of Election.

They are saved by His Mercy and Grace alone! 2 Tim. 1:9

psalm 145:17 The LORD is righteous in all His ways And kind in all His deeds.

His mercy is not separated from his judgement.

even in his judgements He shows mercy.

look at genesis 3:22 Then the LORD God said, "Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil; and now, he might stretch out his hand, and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever "-

God did not want man to live in a state of misery and decay forever. So He stopped him from partaking of eternal life in his sinful state.

The only way He wanted man to have eternal life is in Christ and His work.

His mercy endures forever. for all of His created Children
Mercy in destroying the wicked.
Grace for those in Christ.

Word base mystic, how did the power wash go?

This would indicate to me that mercy is something God wants FROM us, toward others. And like forgiveness, is something we then receive, in turn.

So it seems to me that if we want God's mercy, we need to learn to show mercy to others. Which is something I see VERY little of among modern religious Christians. Who routinely demand the maximum punishments, consequences, and retributions for any and all perceived moral infractions on the part of others.

Words mean things and the Holy Spirit chooses his words carefully when he gives them to the prophets. Do you agree?

Mercy is not getting something. It is not getting what you deserve.
