Trusting God’s Willingness to Forgive

GOD has told us that "like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear him," and yet how many are afraid to trust him! They know that he "so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life," and yet they will not believe that he is ready and willing to forgive their sins. They forget the words of the apostle: "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?" Rom. 8:32.
Mark it; the apostle does not say, "How shall he?" but, "How shall he not?" Having given his Son in order that he might forgive, will he not do it? We know that he will.
