How does God save according to His mercy?

In the sermon, we see that God's mercy is the driving force behind salvation, exemplified in the healing of the withered man. The man did nothing to earn his healing; it was purely an act of grace. Scripture reinforces this in Ephesians 2:8-9, which states that we are saved by grace through faith, not of ourselves. This reinforces the Reformed understanding that salvation is a unilateral act of God’s mercy, not contingent upon human effort or merit, illustrating that we are utterly dependent on God’s kindness for our salvation.
