"I wouldn't call him [Abrams} a bad man"

God does. God says he "None is righteous, no not one" [Abrams], and says that only when the righteousness of Christ is imputed to a believer in Christ, is he changed from dead in sins to a new creation.

We all are bad. We have a sin nature. Those who refuse God's grace remain choosing their 'badness' and sin. Those who accept Christ's death for their sin, are now able to WANT and choose that which is good. Prior, we only want that which is contrary to God's expressed will.

and that is why I accepted Christ into my heart years and years ago......to be saved......and though God's law would remain supreme, we have to also abide by man's law to live in an ordered society......if not, we would be killing all abortion doctors, all who do not believe as we would have them believe......we let God Judge them, for we can not...we don't have to like them, but vengeance not ours, it is the Lords......
