   God has always been a giver of Mercy. Bot to the individual and the Masses.   
   He has always shown favor to Mankind, generously. Here are just a few   
   examples of Both the individual and when done en masse.   
      
   Gen 19:19 Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou   
   hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life;   
   and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die:   
      
   Gen 24:27And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of my master Abraham, who hath   
   not left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I being in the way,   
   the LORD led me to the house of my master's brethren.   
      
   Gen 39:21 But the LORD was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy, and gave him   
   favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.   
      
   Gen 43:14 And God Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send   
   away your other brother, and Benjamin. If I be bereaved of my children, I am   
   bereaved.   
      
   Exo 15:13 Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast   
   redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation.   
      
   Exo 20:6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my   
   commandments.   
      
   Exo 25:17 And thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a   
   half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof.   
      
   Exo 25:18 And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt   
   thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.   
      
   Also the word ‘favor’ that he shows speaks of Grace. Thus Grace AND   
   Mercy. Are both found as attributes of the Lord God.   
      
   As there are “Blood Brothers” in the American heritage, where two share   
   Blood Mingled as a sign of an oath, that has always been the way of God since   
   the fall of Adam. The Blood sacrifice done in Faith believing for sins and   
   binding our selves to the Most High God, then came the Anointed One, who shed   
   his blood and covered all who sacrificed for sins, as designed by God, for   
   their redemption, and so he covered all their faith with his own blood and   
   redeemed them from the gates of Hell as he has done for all of us today, who   
   walk by Faith Believing, in action, for their lifetime as Christ IS the final   
   Sacrifice. Once for all time. Thus we are Blood Brothers with Jesus/Yeshua.   
   No tighter bond than that can be had.
