SERMON Mercy, Not Sacrifice Matthew 9:9-13
One of the benefits of the mercy of God is that it encourages us to be merciful. When Jesus said, “I desire mercy, not sacrifice” He was indicating to the Pharisees that routine without conviction served no purpose in God’s eyes.
We must realize that our lives must be lived with the conviction that Jesus Christ is Lord. Our conviction results from a change of heart, a change in attitude. This change within us will also bring an observable change in action, in behavior.
Our merciful Savior gave of His life so that we may have life in His name. May we show mercy to others so they too will come to know our Savior.
Please join us online or at church as we explore Jesus’ statement, “I desire mercy, not sacrifice.”
