Romans 3:12. Thanks to Jesus Christ’s work on the cross, we have a choice between being the old man separated from God or to be a new man in harmony with God. The new man is in continual relationship with God. The new man has God in him. The old man is separated from God and cannot but go a separate path from God. The old man chooses sin and is in fellowship with the devil, the flesh, and the world.

Mark 6:34. The definition of compassion includes having compassion for people that are lost. God has compassion for people that are lost. Jesus showed this compassion when His heart reached out to people that were lost. Jesus saw that so many people were lost because they did not have God's truth in them.

Matthew 9:36. God is a compassionate God. God's compassion is easy to see by us just looking at the definition of compassion. Compassion is a desire to free others from their suffering. God definitely desires to free all of us from suffering. His compassion is empathy not sympathy. God is definitely emphatic with our human situation. This is because He has experienced our human condition through His Son Jesus Christ who lived among us in human form.
