Description

Centering on the theme of mercy, John Paul II hopes to underline this strongest attribute of God, especially in the modern age. He continues his discussion of world problems that was first began in Redeemer of Man, teaching that love informed by God's mercy is the only response to these situations. He appeals to the world's population to turn to the mercy of the Father, and to find in God's love a refuge from the impersonal, technologically-driven world we live in.
