The Pulpit Commentary on Romans 8:31-34

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public domain

If God be thus for us, who can be against us? He who has already given up his own Son for us all will surely grant us all. And, if God has chosen us, who shall arraign us? God himself, who already justifies us?

No. Christ, who died, rose again, ascended to the right hand of God, and now intercedes for us? No. And against them what other power can possibly prevail?
