Allah resorted to outright cursing Christians in one of the suras in Koran

" The Christians call Christ the son of God,that is saying from their mouth .(InThis ) they but imitate what the unbelievers of the old used to say .God's curse be upon them "-------------- Surat At Taubah 30 , Koran

Muslims often says that Allah is most merciful , so why Allah resorted to outright cursing the Christians in one of the suras of Koran ???

Any explanation from Harrak ... ?
