So, Christ dying on the cross for us was not an act of mercy?
You know I wasn’t referring to Christ and His work on the cross. I know you can distinguish between acts of mercy performed by a sinner and the death of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords on that Roman cross. He died an atoning death as the substitute for His sheep. He paid their sin debt in full and in turn His perfect rightousness was imputed to them.
