Mercy is the kissing cousin of Grace. Grace has been defined as receiving the good things of God that we don’t deserve. Likewise, Mercy has been defined as not receiving the things we do deserve (like God’s judgement and wrath). Mercy has also been described as God’s kindness, compassion, and forgiveness. The Scriptures are clear that we have a merciful God, and we are to emulate Him.
