( Romans 4 : 15 -16 ; What shall we say then ? Is there unrighteousness with God ? God forbid. 15. For he saith to Moses , I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. 16. So it is not on him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. ) When we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior , we have favor with God ,and then God shows mercy to us, thus He cleanse us from all unrighteous. We then become one with God. We then become His child. heirs of the kingdom with Jesus Christ and kings and priests of God. This is the mercy that He has bestowed upon us from the foundation of the world. What a blessing we are, that we have become the sons of God. We shall be like Him for we shall see Him as He really is. This is the hope that we have when we have become His child and see Him fave to face.
