If only the good die young then I will be here a very long time because there is no good in me except for what God has done for me and the Holy Spirit who lives in me. Other than that I’ve got nothing. Show We struggle with death and come to some peace with it when people die in their 80s, 90s and even 100s. When they die under those ages we are frustrated and confused. We wonder why an infant dies, a teen and even someone in their 40s. They are so young and had so much ahead of them. Some deaths are by disease and we cope with that a tad better than those who die by accident or murder. We may not understand how a five month old can die of cancer or heart failure, but we understand the frailty of the human body and its susceptibility to disease. I do not know when the age of accountability kicks in. It may be different for each individual, but I do believe that all infants go to Heaven by God’s grace though some believe that God in His foreknowledge knows which child would grow up and believe and which wouldn’t. Indeed, He does have the foreknowledge and we will see examples of that shortly, but I believe infants are innocent. Thus while abortion angers me, I see God filling up Heaven with these children. That said, Satan and his followers will be held accountable for that innocent blood and those children will rise up as witnesses against them in the Last Judgment therefore I do not condone abortion, but rather abhor it. There is grace, salvation and forgiveness for all who may have had a part in this if they repent and come to Christ. I know many have had regrets and suffer grief from their experience. Many were lied to or forced to abort. God knows that. They can find hope in Christ who will forgive and bring healing and peace to them. There is life after this event. I pray they will come to Him for that. God has promised long life to the righteous and in His mercy He has granted long life to some who hate Him. He is giving them more time to be saved and thus they will not be able to say they did not have enough time to believe. Sometimes the righteous die young for the purpose of God. Sometimes He takes a child of His home early as a reward and sometimes to spare them sorrow. Sometimes it is because they have become too much of a stumbling block as they have become prideful and hypocritical. That is a last resort because God desires them to repent and serve here, but if not He may have to recall them to HQ for not following procedures and conduct unbecoming a child of the King. I am glad that His mercies are new every morning and that death is a last resort or I would not be here to write this. Some jump to the conclusion, like Job’s friends, that a young person dies because of sin, but that is not always true. Let’s look at a couple of circumstances where an early death was meant to be a blessing. God was perfectly willing to allow Hezekiah to die young of an illness. He was not in sin at this time. Later, he showed too much of his kingdom to the wrong people and God was upset, but he was in good standing at this date. He certainly had faith. He sought God. We are not told that he violated any natural laws. It did not appear that God even wanted to glorify Himself through Hezekiah’s death. Then why was the good going to die young? In fact, God wanted to spare Hezekiah some sorrow, but even more so the entire kingdom. Let us reflect on Isaiah 38:1-8 and I Kings 14:13. We are not given the whole prayer of Hezekiah. An argument that he could have used was that he had reigned a very short time in comparison to others that had been wicked. Another argument could have been that he had no heir and even the wicked kings had heirs. Whatever else he may have said other than asking God to check his service record we will not know until we get to glory. We do know his prayer was answered by fifteen years being added to his life and reign. His son, Manasseh, would be born three years later and that would be bad news for the nation. He was a very evil and wicked king and reigned for fifty-five years. Read II Kings 21 to get the full details. Had Hezekiah died, the nation of Israel would have been spared its most wicked king. In other words, one death would have spared the many much evil. Hezekiah should have died of his sickness. I believe this happened as an example to us. God knew what he was about.
