In Luke 6, Jesus calls His followers to a radical kind of love: “Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you.” This isn’t easy, but it’s the kind of mercy that reflects the heart of God.
In this week's message, Pastor Pete reminds us that mercy is magnetic. It draws people in, it softens hearts, and it brings glory to God. As believers, we’re called to:
- Long for others to enter God’s Kingdom.
- Be merciful, just as our Father is merciful.
And if you’re not yet a believer, here’s the message Pastor Pete wants you to hear: Our Father is merciful. He loves you. Jesus died for you. He is for you, not against you. He will never leave you or forsake you.
If you need mercy, God is what you need because our Father is merciful, and His mercy is always available.
