What does Matthew 7:8 mean?
For everyone that asketh receiveth
For God is no respecter of persons; whoever makes application, be
he a Jew, or a Gentile, rich or poor, bond or free, a man of
great gifts, or mean parts, provided he asks aright, from right
principles, and with right views, shall not lose his labour; but
shall receive all such good things at the hand of God, as are
suitable and convenient for him.
And he that seeketh findeth;
he that seeks for God in Christ, the grace and mercy of God, the
kingdom of God, and his righteousness; that seeks after the true
riches, both of grace and glory, shall be sure to find them; see
( Proverbs
21:21 ) .
And to him that knocketh it shall be opened:
that is, to him that is constant at the throne of grace, who
continues knocking at the door of mercy, and will have no denial,
it shall be opened to him; and he shall have entrance into the
holiest of all by the blood of Jesus.
