Mercy and Grace

But go ye and learn what that meaneth, for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

For I desired Mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, Mercy, and Faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

²³ And it came to pass, that He went through the corn fields on the Sabbath day; and His disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn.
²⁴ And the Pharisees said unto Him, Behold, why do they on the Sabbath day that which is not lawful?

²⁵ And He said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him?
²⁶ How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him?
²⁷ And He said unto them, The Sabbath was made for man and not man for the Sabbath.
²⁸ Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the Sabbath.

And His Mercy is on them that fear Him from generation to generation.

¹⁵ For He saith to Moses, I will have Mercy on whom I will have Mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
¹⁶ So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth Mercy.

Therefore hath He Mercy on whom He will have Mercy, and whom He will he hardeneth.

¹ And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
² Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
³ Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

⁴ But God, who is rich in Mercy, for His great love wherewith He loved us,
⁵ Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by Grace ye are saved;)
⁶ And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in Heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
⁷ That in the ages to come He might shew the exceeding riches of His Grace in His kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
⁸ For by Grace are ye saved through Faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.

But by the Grace of God I am what I am: and His Grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the Grace of God which was with me.

Let your speech be always with Grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.

For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the Grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister Grace unto the hearers.

Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from Grace.

I do not frustrate the Grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his Mercy He saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the Mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

For He shall have judgment without Mercy, that hath shewed no Mercy; and Mercy rejoiceth against judgment.

The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear Him, in those that hope in His Mercy.
