God is merciful to thousands, from fathers to children

Exodus 34:5-7

‘The Lord descended in the cloud…, and proclaimed the name of the Lord…. “The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering and abundant in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity…but by no means clearing the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and upon the children’s children to the third and the fourth generation!”‘

Rev. Prof. Dr Francis Nigel Lee

Dr Francis Nigel Lee was born in 1934 in the Westmorland County of Cumbria (in Great Britain). He was the great-grandson of a fiery preacher whose family disintegrated when he backslid. Though Dr Lee’s father was an Atheist, he married a Roman Catholic, who raised her son in that faith.

At the onset of the Second World War, Dr Lee’s father was appointed by the Royal Navy as Chief Radar Officer (South Atlantic). So the family then moved to South Africa. There, Dr Lee became a Calvinist, had the great joy of leading both of his parents to Christ and became Minister of God’s Word and Sacraments in the Reformed Church of Natal.
