1. A biblical look at the meaning of the term mercy.
- That benevolence, mildness or tenderness of heart which disposes a person to overlook injuries, or to treat an offender better than he deserves; the disposition that tempers justice, and induces an injured person to forgive trespasses and injuries, and to forbear punishment, or inflict less than law or justice will warrant. In this sense, there is perhaps no word in our language precisely synonymous with mercy. That which comes nearest to it is grace. It implies benevolence, tenderness, mildness, pity or compassion, and clemency, but exercised only towards offenders. Mercy is a distinguishing attribute of the Supreme Being.--Webster 1828 dictionary

“ Great Sermon! ” Multitudes around the world sing Sunday after Sunday, ‘Give me that Old Time Religion’, not even knowing what that religion is or how far away their churches have departed from it. Do you desire to know what this ‘old time religion’ is all about, then please make the time to listen to these sermons by Pastor Peter Nortier. In almost every sermon he powerfully speaks of those things which you need to hear [not like to hear]. Heaven, Hell, Sovereign mercy, God’s Election and the need for true repentance, are all somehow squeezed into almost every sermon he preaches. His sermons are rich in the Word and a feast for every one of God’s elect. A truly anointed man of God who does not mince words but tells it like it is. May the Lord richly bless him, and his ministry!
