Psalms 116:5

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 116:5. Gracious is the LORD, and righteous;

A curious mixture. You will never understand it until you stand at the foot of the cross.

Psalms 116:5. Yea, our God is merciful.

That is the practical outcome of the holy conjunction of grace and righteousness in the atoning sacrifice of Christ. "Our God is merciful." Sometimes when people cannot read well, they spell the words, and one, I remember, spelt God in this way - "Yea, our God is merciful." That will do - full of mercy - merciful.
