Who Gets Mercy?

August 16th, 2009 by Glenn Hoburg

When Jesus says “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy” he doesn’t give a necessary condition for receiving God’s mercy, but he does give a necessary consequence of it. If someone lacks the impulse and actions to show mercy they have missed something essential about the Christian gospel. What does Mercy involve? Who really are the merciful?
