Are the death penalty, as we know it today, and abortion the same? Are both taking God’s judgment into our own hands, or is there a difference?
Regarding election, I believe in it but stop just shy of saying that God is responsible if someone ends up in hell. Free will is something God allows and when we make bad decisions, bad consequences are sure to follow. Hell is the consequence when someone doesn’t respond to God’s spirit & follows through with a public display of faith (salvation). I believe God knows how we will decide but doesn’t force his will on anyone. He is not to blame when our pride gets in the way (as with someone who is wrestling with salvation).
