Romans 8:32

He who didn’t spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things?

What does Romans 8:32 mean?

Paul is making a logical argument about God's generosity based on what has already been given. If God was willing to give up his own Son to death for our sake, then surely he won't withhold anything else we genuinely need. The "if/then" structure is meant to reassure us: the hardest thing has already been done, so what comes next should be easier for God to provide. This can be deeply comforting when you're worried about whether God cares about your specific struggles or whether he'll come through for you. Paul is saying the answer has already been demonstrated in the most costly way imaginable. Whatever else you need, God has already proven his willingness to sacrifice for you.
