Mercy Gone Bad by Jonah Chukwuemeka Agunwamba Pdf

The book ‘Mercy Gone Wrong’ expresses that all men are equal in all aspects except in exposure and ability to utilize opportunities that only God supplies. Hence, we have no reason to boast about our spiritual and material attainment and acquisition. Rather, as recipients of God’s manifold mercies, we should eagerly show mercy to all men as we have the opportunity. In an in dept scriptural analysis, the book discusses that God exhibits His mercy in all His dealings with man. We should, therefore, by God’s grace cultivate this special attribute, integrate it into our relationships, and view other people’s failures from the periscope of mercy. The author explains how the practice of God’s kind of mercy can bring blessings to a man and his progeny, drawing testimonies from his life and others. The book illustrates how and how not to show mercy and the blessings that follow mercy givers. In addition, the book offers a guide to people with limited compassion or who lack the push to act on their compassion to improve and become good mercy givers. In this era of economic recession, when men tend to be selfish and interested only in their own affairs, the book is a refreshing and motivating call for people to manifest abundant mercy while being watchful against the fraudulent practices of evil men. Mercy is a vital tool for spreading the gospel in a hurting world.

Mercy on Trial by Austin Sarat Pdf

On January 11, 2003, Illinois Governor George Ryan--a Republican on record as saying that "some crimes are so horrendous . . . that society has a right to demand the ultimate penalty"--commuted the capital sentences of all 167 prisoners on his state's death row. Critics demonized Ryan. For opponents of capital punishment, however, Ryan became an instant hero whose decision was seen as a signal moment in the "new abolitionist" politics to end killing by the state. In this compelling and timely work, Austin Sarat provides the first book-length work on executive clemency. He turns our focus from questions of guilt and innocence to the very meaning of mercy. Starting from Ryan's controversial decision, Mercy on Trial uses the lens of executive clemency in capital cases to discuss the fraught condition of mercy in American political life. Most pointedly, Sarat argues that mercy itself is on trial. Although it has always had a problematic position as a form of "lawful lawlessness," it has come under much more intense popular pressure and criticism in recent decades. This has yielded a radical decline in the use of the power of chief executives to stop executions. From the history of capital clemency in the twentieth century to surrounding legal controversies and philosophical debates about when (if ever) mercy should be extended, Sarat examines the issue comprehensively. In the end, he acknowledges the risks associated with mercy--but, he argues, those risks are worth taking.

The Ransom of Mercy Carter by Caroline B. Cooney Pdf

Deerfield, Massachusetts is one of the most remote, and therefore dangerous, settlements in the English colonies. In 1704 an Indian tribe attacks the town, and Mercy Carter becomes separated from the rest of her family, some of whom do not survive. Mercy and hundreds of other settlers are herded together and ordered by the Indians to start walking. The grueling journey -- three hundred miles north to a Kahnawake Indian village in Canada -- takes more than 40 days. At first Mercy's only hope is that the English government in Boston will send ransom for her and the other white settlers. But days turn into months and Mercy, who has become a Kahnawake daughter, thinks less and less of ransom, of Deerfield, and even of her "English" family. She slowly discovers that the "savages" have traditions and family life that soon become her own, and Mercy begins to wonder: If ransom comes, will she take it?

A Snarl Theology by John Francis Pearring,John Sorensen Pdf

A Snarl Theology calls God a merciful creator, a big-picture divinity, bigger than anything imaginable. Scripture confirms that in the restoration of the world and all its environs, there will be a settlement between God and his creatures. A covenant to set animals and us back as we were meant to be. “I will make a covenant for them on that day, with the beasts of the field, with the birds of the air, and with the things that crawl on the ground.” (Hosea 2:20) Redemption is the divine act of follow-through regarding covenant—washing away our faults, defects, and foibles and taking us into the arms of the divine. Are animals rewarded with redemption, like us—with a full restoration? To imagine that God will not reward these martyred creatures, who play a significant role in human redemption, weakens the concept and promise of paradise. Animals are sentient beyond our understanding, residents in a universe where God communicates with everyone. This animal kingdom theology implies that animals, too, hear God’s voice. A Snarl Theology’s hope for animals to be our redemptive allies shouldn’t cancel doctrine, upset dogma, or countermand Christianity. It should increase our love of God.
