Nicholas Byfield, Puritan minister, writes on putting on tender mercies, a feeling for the distresses of others which you FEEL in your belly (“bowels”, Col 3:12). Like Jesus, Moses, and Paul.
Who knew. Paul was the main villain in 1980’s-90’s theological liberalism. Meanwhile, does MAGA Xianity train us to shut off this feeling?
How can you put on the bowels of mercies?
