2:4.1 [[Mercy]] is simply [[justice]] tempered by that [[wisdom]] which [[grows]] out of [[perfection]] of [[knowledge]] and the full recognition of the [[Human condition|natural weaknesses]] and [[environmental]] handicaps of [[finite]] [[creatures]]. "Our God is full of [[compassion]], [[gracious]], long-suffering, and [[Abundance|plenteous]] in [[mercy]]."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_Letter_of_Paul_to_the_Galatians#The_Letter_of_Paul_to_the_Galatians.2C_VI] Therefore "whosoever calls upon the Lord shall be saved,"[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_Letter_of_Paul_to_the_Romans#The_Letter_of_Paul_to_the_Romans.2C_X] "for he will abundantly pardon."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_Letter_of_Paul_to_the_Romans#The_Letter_of_Paul_to_the_Romans.2C_X] "The mercy of the Lord is from [[Eternal|everlasting]] to everlasting"[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Psalms#Psalm_100]; yes, "his mercy [[endures]] forever."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Psalms#Psalm_136] "I am the Lord who executes [[loving]]-[[kindness]], [[judgment]], and [[Goodness|righteousness]] in the [[earth]], for in these things I [[Joy|delight]]."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Jeremiah#Chapter_.9] "I do not afflict willingly nor [[grieve]] the [[children]] of [[Humanity|men]]," for I am "[[the Father]] of mercies and the [[God]] of all [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Giver_of_Comfort-1995-12-11 comfort]."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2nd_Letter_of_Paul_to_the_Corinthians#2nd_Letter_of_Paul_to_the_Corinthians.2C_VII]

2:4.2 God is inherently [[kind]], naturally [[compassionate]], and everlastingly merciful. And never is it [[necessary]] that any [[influence]] be brought to bear upon the Father to call forth his loving-kindness. The [[creature]]'s need is wholly sufficient to insure the full [[flow]] of the Father's [[Affection|tender]] mercies and his [[Salvation|saving]] [[grace]]. Since [[God]] knows all about his [[children]], it is easy for him to [[forgive]]. The better man [[understands]] his neighbor, the easier it will be to forgive him, even to [[love]] him.

2:4.4 [[Mercy]] is the [[natural]] and inevitable offspring of [[goodness]] and [[love]]. The good nature of a loving [[Father]] could not possibly withhold the wise ministry of mercy to each member of every [[group]] of his [[Family|universe children]]. Eternal justice and divine mercy together constitute what in [[human]] [[experience]] would be called [[fairness]].
