Bible Question: what is the difference between grace and mercy. or is mercy the same thing as gracead why? |
Bible Answer: Grace and Mercy are related, yes, but not the same. Grace is giving you what you don't deserve. Mercy is not giving you what you do deserve. To explain it in a different way. We, being sinful creatures, do not deserve eternal life. However, it is provided through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We don't deserve eternal life, yet we are offered it anyways. That is Grace. We, as sinful creatures, do deserve to die as punishment for our sins. However, with salvation, we are pardoned. We won't die the eternal death, even though we deserve it. That is mercy. Jesus Loves you, Jesusman. |
