The mercy of God is not a distant concept—it’s His very nature. From Genesis to Revelation, God reveals Himself as righteous, just, and profoundly compassionate. His mercy is not a reaction; it’s a reflection of His divine character.
As we approach the end of the age we are overwhelmed with the amount of evidence of the reliability and accuracy of the Bible.
