The Healing at Bethesda John 5:1-16 July 13, 2025

God is a merciful God.  Not only does He have pity for us and demonstrates compassion towards us, He actually delights in extending mercy.Micah 7:18-19 (NKJV) Who is a God like You, Pardoning iniquity And passing over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He does not retain His anger forever, Because He delights in mercy.  He will again have compassion on us, And will subdue our iniquities. You will cast all our sins Into the depths of the sea.We can look at the compassion of Jesus at the pool of Bethesda as an example of God's mercy and look to the cross of Jesus as proof that God delights in showing mercy to sinners.
