What does the Bible say about judgment, mercy, and faith?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible states that judgment, mercy, and faith are the weightier matters of the law, emphasized in Matthew 23:23.

In Matthew 23:23, Jesus addresses the Pharisees, denouncing them for their focus on tithing while neglecting the more significant aspects of the law: judgment, mercy, and faith. These are not just religious duties but essential characteristics of God that need to be evident in the lives of believers. Judgment pertains to understanding our sinful nature and God's holy standards; mercy highlights God's compassion towards sinners; and faith reflects our trust in God's provision and the finished work of Christ. These matters should lead to an authentic expression of grace and holiness in a believer's life.
