More than a million babies are killed in the USA by abortion.

They are all innocent.

What is your rationalization for the lack of divine intervention with regards to preventing their painful deaths?

In regards to the millions of innocent victims of abortion, you seem to think it is unjust of God to allow them to die.

But God allows many people to die, every day. Some are aborted, some murdered in other ways. Some die in terrible accidents they aren’t at fault for, in wars they didn’t start, from terrible diseases they didn’t ask for or apparently deserve.

Because in Adam’s fall, we sinned all. And we are all condemned to death. And we all die, at one point or another.

Sometimes, in regards to a specific person who dies as recorded in the Bible, He says why. But He doesn’t make a blanket statement about the rest of us.

Your presumption seems to be that God owes us something. Life, or protection, or something. God doesn’t owe us anything.

In His mercy, he offers us eternal life. He didn’t have to do that, but He did.

As Job said, “If He takes away, who can hinder Him? Who can say to Him, ‘What are You doing?’” (Job 9:12)

As Luke tells us,

“There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And Jesus answered and said to them,

“’Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.

Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.’” (Luke 13:1-5)

So in Adam all die; in Christ all are made alive.
