To sin because mercy abounds, is the devil's logic. He that sins because of mercy is like one that wounds his head because he hath a plaster; he that sins because of God's mercy, shall have judgment without mercy. Mercy abused turns to fury.
Thomas Watson — A Body of Practical Divinity, "Of the Mercy of God" (warning against abusing mercy; cf. Deut. 29:19–20 in the same paragraph)
