What does the Bible say about God's mercy?

Answered in 33 sources

The Bible reveals that God's mercy is essential to His nature and is expressed through salvation and regeneration by the Holy Spirit (Titus 3:5).

The Scriptures describe God's mercy as both natural and essential to His being, underscoring that His actions of mercy are sovereign and dispensed according to His will. In Titus 3:5, we learn that God saves not by our works of righteousness, but according to His merciful nature, which is fully expressed in the act of regeneration and the renewal brought about by the Holy Ghost. God's mercy is rich and abundant, flowing through the redemptive work of Jesus Christ, serving as the basis for our salvation.
