MERCY

Jude 1: 17 REMEMBER the [prophetic] words spoken by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ. 18 They used to say to you, “In the last days there will be SCOFFERS, following after their own ungodly passions.” 19 These are the ones who are [agitators] causing DIVISIONS—worldly-minded [secular, unspiritual, carnal, merely sensual—unsaved], devoid of the Spirit. 20 But you, beloved, build yourselves up on [the foundation of] your most holy faith [continually progress, RISE like an ...edifice higher and higher], PRAY in the Holy Spirit, 21 and keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting anxiously and looking forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ [which will bring you] to eternal life. 22 And HAVE MERCY on some, who are doubting; 23 save others, SNATCHING THEM OUT OF THE FIRE; and on some have mercy but with fear, loathing even the clothing spotted and polluted by their shameless immoral freedom.


'He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches He who overcomes will not be hurt by the second death.'
 Revelation 2:11


Blessed and holy is the one who has a part in the first resurrection; over these the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with Him for a thousand years. Revelation 20:6


Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire This is the second death, the lake of fire. Revelation 20:14


"But for the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death." Revelation 21:8



Forgive me Lord, when I lose confidence in myself or others; before I have given time, space, and tender care to see weeds pulled out and each blossom grow fragrant in their own unique way.
