ON TRUSTING IN THE M ERCY OF GOD / trust in the mercy o f God forever and ever. (Psalm 5 2 :8 ). I. What Mercy Is 1. Mercy is not to be confounded with mere goodness. 2. Mercy is a disposition to par­ don the guilty. 3. Mercy is exercised only where there is guilt. 4. Mercy can be exercised no fa r ­ ther than one deserves punish­ ment. II. What Is Implied in Trusting in the Mercy o f God 1. A conviction o f guilt. 2. That we have no hope on the score o f justice. 3. A ju st apprehension o f what mercy is. 4. A belief that He is merciful. 5. T h e conviction o f deserving endless punishment. 6. The cessation from all excuses and excuse-making. III. The Conditions on Which We May Safely Trust in God’s Mercy 1. Public justice must be ap­ peased. 2. We must repent. 3. W e must confess our sins. 4. Make restitution so fa r as lies in our power. 5. Must really reform . 6. Go the whole length in ju stify ­ ing the law and its penalty. 7. Must be entirely submissive to those measures o f the govern­ ment bringing him to convic­ tion. 8. Must close in cordially with the plan of salvation. IV. Mistakes which A re Made on This Subject 1. Many really trust in justice and not in mercy. 2. Many trust professedly in the mercy o f God without fulfilling the conditions on which mercy can be shown. 3. Sinners do not consider that God cannot dispense with their fulfilling these conditions. 4. Many are defeating their own salvation by self-justification. 5. Many pretend to trust in mercy who yet profess to be punished for their sins as they go along. 6. Persons, in the letter, plead fo r mercy who often rely really on justice. 7. Some are covering up their sins, yet dream o f going to heaven. 8. We cannot ask fo r mercy be­ yond our acknowledged and felt guilt. —Charles G. Finney
