Okay. The reason Jesus was merciful with the tax collector is because he was truly seeking him. He went to where Jesus was and literally went out on a limb! The tax collector repented and made reparation for his sin. Jesus never said continue in your sin. The tax collector came to be changed by Jesus - how? By the removal of his sins.

"The mercy of God is our true and only hope" says it all very well! Excellent reflection!! And lets us remember that we are called to do and be the same - loving and merciful!
