God’s compassionate withholding of deserved judgment, offering forgiveness and restoration to sinners through His steadfast love in Christ.
God’s mercy is the tender expression of His love toward those in misery and guilt. It moves Him to forgive, to heal, and to redeem rather than condemn. Mercy flows not from human worth but from divine compassion, reaching its climax in the cross where justice and mercy meet. To receive mercy is to be transformed into one who shows mercy—reflecting the heart of the God who delights to forgive.
