How do we know God's requirement for mercy is true?

Answered in 1 source

God's requirement for mercy is affirmed throughout Scripture, such as in Luke 1:72 and Micah 6:8, demonstrating His covenant faithfulness.

The requirement for mercy is rooted in the very nature of God, who is merciful to His people. As seen in Luke 1:72, God fulfills His merciful promises, reaffirming the importance of mercy as a fundamental aspect of His character. Mercy is not simply a divine suggestion but an essential expectation for those who have received mercy themselves. In Micah 6:8, the call to love mercy is a direct reflection of how God interacts with humanity; those who experience God’s mercy are naturally inclined to extend that mercy to others. This understanding reinforces the relational aspect of God's dealings with His people, urging them to respond to His grace with compassionate actions.
