God does have mercy to all those who believe and follow His Word. If we do not believe and follow what Gods' Word says there is no mercy, only justice and judgement according to the scriptures. God's salvation is conditional on believing and following what God's Word says.
Lord, have mercy.

According to the scriptures, God and Jesus shows mercy to all those who believe and follow His Word. There is no mercy however according to the scriptures in all those who do not believe and follow Gods' Word and knowingly live a life of known unrepentant sin. As posted earlier in times of ignorance God winks at but when he gives us a knowledge of the truth he calls all men everywhere to believe and follow what His Word says. *Acts of the Apostles 17:30-31; James 4:17. According to the scriptures we are only held accountable for sins we know are sins not for sins we do not know are sins *see Hebrews 10:26-31.
Blessed are the merciful,
I haven't yet met a single person who I wouldn't want God to have mercy on.This is what the bible says will happen to the wicked (not me)

.................
There is no second chances for the unrepentant wicked at the second coming as the scriptures teach us in Revelation 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. Universalism is a man-made teaching that makes a mockery of the cross and Gods' justice and judgement for sin and is a false teaching designed to lead all those who follow it away from God and His Word.
The false teachings of Universalism are simply the same lies given to mankind in Genesis 3:1-5 that we can disobey God and no surely die. This is the same lie given to Eve simply re marketed under the name of "Universal Reconciliation" which teaches the same lies that we can disobey Gods Word and not surely die.
99 all thanks for the discussion time for me get some rest.
May God bless you we you seek Him through His Word
As posted earlier God has mercy on all those who choose to believe and follow His Word. According to the scriptures there is no mercy for those who do not believe and do not follow Gods Word. Thanks nice to talk to you
I did not know that Atheism believes in the second coming and the bible. Of course you are free to believe as you wish as that is between you and God to work through, but making untruthful claims and statements about another person does not really help a discussion in my view it only seeks to stifle it. Chat latter as I have to go now as it is late my time.
