God Spared Not His Own Son for Us |
|
Because God has done for our good the greatest that is conceivable, will He not therefore provide all the other blessings we need?
The apostle Paul enjoys arguing from the greater to the lesser in Romans 8:32. “He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things?”
“He who did not spare His own Son.” God gave His very best for us while we were yet depraved sinners (Romans 5:8).
God the Father is the One who gave up His Son for sinners. “His own Son” means that there is no other person who stands in this same relationship to the Father. Jesus called “God His own Father, making Himself equal with God” (John 5:18; cf. 14:10).
