Any abortion connection of any kind still involves my agreeing to take advantage of abortion when it benefits me.

That absolutely destroys any attempt i make to object to abortion. The response will be, “you used it when it was convenient for you.”

I can see God using that same argument.

Change the word abortion to murder in your post, and you get:

“Any [murder] connection of any kind still involves my agreeing to take advantage of [murder] when it benefits me.
That absolutely destroys any attempt i make to object to [murder]. The response will be, “you used it when it was convenient for you.”
I can see God using that same argument.”

Jesus was God, and an innocent man. Despite that, He was wrongfully beaten and murdered by unscrupulous men for money and power. And yet, that crime against Jesus, His horrible death, created our only path to salvation -— and all Christians accept and benefit from it.

Would you have pulled Jesus from the cross so that he would live a long life of preaching and teaching, but die a normal death as an old man? What about salvation?

There is no salvation without the resurrection, and no resurrection without the crucifixion. The ways of God are above the ways of men, and we only see through the glass dimly.

Or did you acknowledge that all things work together for good for those who love God, and accept salvation from a crucified (and resurrected) Jesus knowing full well how He suffered to give you His gift?
