How do we know God is merciful despite the consequences of sin?

Answered in 1 source

The mercy of God is evident in His willingness to forgive sinners, as demonstrated through David's repentance.

God's mercy is a fundamental aspect of His character, and it is beautifully illustrated in the life of David. Despite the grave consequences of David's sin, including the death of his child, we see God's grace at work. David acknowledged his sin and turned to God in repentance — a crucial act that underscores the availability of mercy for all who genuinely seek it. Psalm 51, penned by David after his sin, reveals his deep remorse and understanding of God's forgiving nature, showing that while sin incurs consequences, there is always room for grace and restoration in Christ.
