He Freely Gives

"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 8:32).

If this is not a promise in form, it is in fact. Indeed, it is more than one
promise, it is a conglomerate of promises. It is a mass of rubies, and
emeralds, and diamonds, with a nugget of gold for their setting. It is a
question which can never be answered so as to cause us any anxiety of heart.
What can the LORD deny us after giving us Jesus? If we need all things in
heaven and earth, He will grant them to us: for if there had been a limit
anywhere, He would have kept back His own Son.

What do I want today? I have only to ask for it. I may seek earnestly, but not
as if I had to use pressure and extort an unwilling gift from the LORD's hand;
for He will give freely. Of His own He gave us His own Son. Certainly no one
would have proposed such a gift to Him. No one would have ventured to ask for
it. It would have been too presumptuous. He freely gave His Only begotten, and,
O my soul, canst thou not trust thy heavenly Father to give thee anything, to
give thee everything? Thy poor prayer would have no force with Omnipotence if
force were needed; but His love, like a spring, rises of itself and overflows
for the supply of all thy needs.

At the present time there is need of funds for the printing of two projects,
the first being that of the Haldane commentary on Romans. The Lord used the
messages of Robert Haldane with an outpouring of His power and grace when they
were first preached in the 19th Century in Geneva. Many souls were born again
through his ministry at that time and we are praying that the Lord will bless
the message of the gospel presented in this work once again in Italy.

We are also presenting the needs for printing the biography of Goffredo
Varaglia, a fervent Italian preacher of the grace of God who was martyred for
the faith at Torino on March 23, 1558.  There is a great need for the Italians
to know of their rich evangelical heritage when many sealed their testimony
with their blood! They were men and women whose lives touched many during their
brief time on this earth and are still examples of what it means to be truly
consecrated to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Thank you for your faithful prayer and support.

By His Grace,

Paul G Renigar Sr
