Upside Down Kingdom | The Mercy of the Kingdom

Why is mercy so hard, and why does Jesus call it blessed? In this message from the Upside Down Kingdom series, we explore “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.” From the Old Testament mercy seat to the cross of Christ, you’ll see how God’s mercy wasn’t just taught, it was secured forever through Jesus. Mercy isn’t personality-based kindness; it flows from realizing how much grace we’ve received. This sermon shows how forgiveness frees both others and ourselves, how bitterness blocks the kingdom, and how a community marked by compassion can change families, workplaces, and even cities. 00:08 — Mercy isn’t natural — but it starts with God 01:22 — The Ark, the mercy seat, and atonement explained 02:53 — Jesus: the final sacrifice securing mercy forever 03:34 — Receiving mercy before giving it 04:38 — Jesus on the cross: the ultimate example of mercy 05:18 — Mercy comes from the Spirit, not personality 05:45 — The cycle of mercy: giving it frees you 06:15 — Bitterness vs kingdom living 06:38 — Return to the Beatitudes to grow mercy 07:06 — A church known for mercy can change the world 08:05 — Closing prayer: living as people of mercy
