Charles Spurgeon Commentary Romans 8:31-32

"What then shall we say to these things? If God [is] for us, who [is] against us? He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also with him freely give us all things?" — Romans 8:31-32 (ASV)

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things! (Romans 8:31–32)

What, indeed, what can we say? We are lost in wonder, love, and praise.

This much, however, we can say, for it concerns our struggles while we are in this life. Paul still has that shadow ever upon him – of struggling against the flesh.

What shall we say in view of these blessed things concerning that struggle? Why, this: If God be for us, Who can be against us?

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

Notice, it is not simply freely give us all things; but, with him also freely give us all things. You shall get all things with Christ; but you shall get nothing without Christ, for all the other gifts come in this one. God first gave us his Son; and he gives us everything in him.

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also give us all things? (Romans 8:31–32)

After having given us his own Son, what is there that he can withhold from us if it is for our real good? Indeed, he has already virtually given us all things in giving him to us.
