Preachers and Teachers really need to stop confusing Mercy with Grace for the Body of Christ:
Mercy is FORGIVENESS and EXONERATION.
Grace is POWER and PROVISION.
MERCY is being declared Not Guilty and let out of Prison.
GRACE is getting a high-paying job with On-the-Job Training.
If you keep confusing Mercy with Grace, you won’t be able to utilize the Grace you were given.
You’ll be grateful to get out of prison but you will be so busy celebrating, that you won’t show up to your on-the-job training. Then you could end up in a vicious cycle of begging for more mercy without the power to change your life.
This problem makes the Body of Christ a weak and powerless embarrassment to the gospel.
Thank God for Mercy!
Now go use His Grace!
