Our God is a God of both sovereign and surprising mercy. While it’s true that he is unchanging, reliable, and faithful to perform his word, he nevertheless tends to surprise us, especially in his displays of mercy and salvation. And one of the clearest examples of this is seen in the formation of true Israel throughout redemptive history. In this sermon, pastor Matt explains that God has chosen to reveal his sovereign mercy in saving a people from every nation. The river of God’s mercy in Christ flows both deep and wide, as he calls underserving sinners into relationship with himself from the Jews and the Gentiles.
