And the answer is of course a, "No." And, that is correct.
God is sovereign. He can do things that we are not permitted to do. He can make decisions we are not authorized to make. He can choose to do things in accordance to His divine will and secret eternal counsel... that defy what we think He should be doing.
God is God.
And by commending the souls of those who only had a traditional or rudimentary faith in Christ to God... we allow God to judge as He so pleases, trusting that the judge of all the earth will always do right regardless of what He chooses to do.

Chris, you believe God randomly kills people for absolutely no reason?
Please, keep telling us what you really believe.
