MERCY
There is a messianic impulse in the hearts of New Covenant disciples to set religious people free from bondage to the sin of religion. The origin of this impulse is mercy that comes from God’s own heart.

Mercy is a characteristic of God. Mercy, like everything else that flows from God (e.g. love, grace, etc.), is embodied in his spoken word. God’s mercy is activated and released to people who cry out for deliverance from religious oppression receive mercy when they hear God’s spoken word and are delivered from the sin of religion.

People who hear God’s spoken word have peace, joy, mercy and love in their hearts and they share what is in their hearts with others when they speak for God.
