When you see a poor person on the street, at a store or near your
home, how do you respond to him/her? God cares more for the poor than many Christians do. As a Christian, you
have one of two choices: to show mercy or not to show mercy. If you always have a reason for not showing mercy,
then James 2:13 has a message for you,
For judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. (NKJV) James 2:13 Summary. We have seen in our previous studies that the beatitudes describe a
true Christian. Jesus was merciful. He cared for the suffering and helpless and He wants His disciples to be
like Himself. Jesus had a pattern of life of showing mercy to the poor, widows, orphans and others. Come, be
like Jesus . . . follow your master!
