1. Immeasurable – the dimensions of God’s mercy! v. 32
   
   • God’s ministry to the disobedient! Rom. 11:32
   • God’s ministry to the miserable! Matt. 9:27; 15:22

     “ Mercy never can be, but from eternity was; so it will never cease to be. It will never be more since it is itself infinite; and it will never be less because the infinite cannot suffer reduction. Nothing that has occurred or will occur in heaven or earth or hell can change the tender mercies of our God. Forever His mercy stands, a boundless, overwhelming immensity of divine pity and compassion.” A. W. Tozer
