If God is for us, what does it matter who is against us?

What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? Romans 8:31-32

We believe that as children of God we have been adopted into his family (v. 15); we are co-heirs with Christ (v. 17); we have received the Spirit as the guarantee of final redemption (v. 23); our prayers to God are offered up by the Spirit (v. 26); though sinners by nature, through faith we have been pardoned (v. 30); our future glorification is so certain that God speaks of it as already having taken place (v. 30). If this is all true, then the next statement certainly is as well, “what does it matter who may be against us.” Since God did not spare his own Son but delivered him over to death for us all, will he not along with this gracious gift also lavish upon us everything else he has to give? A God who sacrificed his own Son on our behalf will certainly not withhold that which by comparison is insignificant. The immeasurable greatness of God’s love is seen in his sacrifice on our behalf.
