At The Intersection
of
Mercy & Grace

Mercy and Grace are two terms that are often used interchangeably, but are very different in declaration as opposed to decoration:

The Bible teaches that we are all guilty and none of us is righteous before God (Romans 3:10) and those in sin will die (Ezekiel 18:20), but because of God’s Mercy he has delivered us from sin and death. (2 Corinthians 1:10) So Mercy is God’s tender outstretched heart offered to all that “..none perish but all come to everlasting life.” (2 Peter 3:9)

Once becoming a child of God (John 1:12) and joint-heir with Christ (Romans 8:17) his love for us is showered upon us through his continued Grace and blessings to those who walk in His Grace. (Psalm 128:1) Even though we do not deserve that which we have not (nor cannot) earn or pay for, it is His nature to keep heaping goodness upon those that love Him.

Are you at the intersection of MERCY and GRACE? If not, there is a place at the cross(ing) for you. If you are not there, walk up to this signpost and receive the free gift of salvation of your soul. Oh! There is one more benefit thrown in when you do:

“Grace, Mercy and PEACE will be with you...in Truth and Love”
2 John 1:3
