*Mercy & Grace what’s the difference?*
-Eddy Joel Silsbee
May all Glory and Honor be to our wonderful father in Heaven who is only filled with all Grace and Mercy.
Our Lord is with Grace and Mercy (Titus 1:4)
On the account of our sins – none can show us the Grace and Mercy except the creator.
Mercy and Grace are two different words.
Both have different meanings.
1-
It is *Mercy*, not to be punished for a mistake you made when you repented.
Husband or wife or blood relations are hostile to each other or unfounded will "hesitate" to love in a particular situation even for the smallest thing that does not matter.
Only God can do what the government, the authority, the court or even the local panchayat cannot give.
Yes, even if man legally forgives the sin we have committed, unless he repents under the heavenly law, surely such iniquity will be accounted for in the book of life as man's punishment !!
But God, who is merciful, forgives us completely *without penalty* if we accept Christ and repent and obey; because of the love He has bestowed upon us. The name for it is *Mercy*.
2-
When the convict realizes his act and confesses and repents; Not only was it forgiven;
Giving man superior merit is *Grace*.
God Not only Redeeming us from sin,
a man who neither can purchase a piece of land on his own initiative nor he knows the route to travel to heaven by himself; even though he was in the world as a great man could not earn any rights to go heaven nor sit near God; It is God's grace to sanctify any unworthy man and set aside for us a place in their vicinity to be with Him !! Hallelujah !!
None can buy even ONE square feet of land in heaven even if he pays what he has earned throughout his life.
But getting a place in Heaven freely by those who accept Christ is *the grace of God* (John 14: 2).
we read from Eph. 2:5 that “Even when we were dead through our sins, gave us life together with Christ by grace you have salvation…”
It is by *His grace* that He gives us freely inspite of that is precious without any merit and in our inability to buy.
Those of us who deserve to be thrown into hell;
But Forgives us through Christ; is The *Grace* he showed us that transformed us into children of heaven !!
Yes.
*Mercy is that we are released without punishment despite being subject to punishment*.
*It is Grace that we are given with the sublime by our Father in Heaven when we are not worthy*.
Let us thank God for His immeasurable mercy and grace. Let us cling to him faithfully.
He will bless us even more.
