MERCY THAT SAVES

Cross with nails websize

Matthew 5:7 (NIV) Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.

Mark 5:19 (NIV) [Jesus said:] "Go home to your family and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you."

Luke 1:50 (NIV) His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation.

Ephesians 2:4-5 (NRSV) 4  But God, who is rich in mercy, out of the great love with which he loved us 5  even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved.

 

The quality of mercy is not strain'd.

It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven

Upon the place beneath.

It is twice bless'd:

It blesseth him that gives and him that takes.

William Shakespeare (1564-1616)
