GOD's COMPASSION

 Psalm 86:15

King James Version

15 But thou, O Lord, 

art a God full of compassion, 

and gracious, 

long suffering, 

and plenteous in mercy and truth.


No one can match GOD's compassion.

He definitely wants all to be saved.

That's why He sent His Son, JESUS.

John 3:16-17

King James Version

16 For God so loved the world, 

that he gave his only begotten Son, 

that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, 

but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world 

to condemn the world; 

but that the world through him 

might be saved.


But how many heed His call?

How many accept His Son?

How many care to repent?

How many care to be sanctified by His SPIRIT?

JESUS echoed the very same concerns here:

Luke 18:8

King James Version

8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. 

Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, 

shall he find faith on the earth?


GOD is ever-loving.

Knowing the frailty of man.

Romans 5:8

King James Version

8 But God commendeth his love toward us, 

in that, while we were yet sinners, 

Christ died for us.


2 Peter 3:9

King James Version

9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, 

as some men count slackness; 

but is longsuffering to us-ward, 

not willing that any should perish, 

but that all should come to repentance.


Psalm 78:38-39

King James Version

38 But he, 

being full of compassion, 

forgave their iniquity, 

and destroyed them not: 

yea, many a time turned he his anger away, 

and did not stir up all his wrath.

39 For he remembered that they were but flesh; 

a wind that passeth away, 

and cometh not again.


Psalm 78:40-41

King James Version

40 How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness, 

and grieve him in the desert!

41 Yea, they turned back and tempted God, 

and limited the Holy One of Israel.


We have no idea GOD's power.

Nor His love.

Nor His tender mercies.

Man continues to test God.

But GOD is no respecter of persons.

He doesn't play favorites.

Salvation goes as planned.
