For
we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One
who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin.
Therefore
let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive
mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Hebrews
4:15-16
Jesus
was tempted just as we are tempted and He understands our weaknesses. And, He overlooks them, because rather than
heap guilt and punishment upon us, He prefers to show mercy to us.
Therefore,
should we who have been shown mercy by the Son of God not show mercy to those
who are tempted, falling and suffering around us?
I
think so.
