The death of David’s child was indeed mercy. The punishment under the law for David’s actions was death. So David got mercy. Similarly the child would have suffered as an illegitimate son. Ultimately all of us are fallen under God so this is just tho sad.
God really killed a baby and mfers call that “grace”

we can both agree the child was innocent. why was the child punished for David’s actions? that is not justice. that is not mercy on the child bc it was punished for David’s actions… same with God commanding his wives to be raped in front of him bc he committed adultery. Go re-read Numbers 31 and attempt to justify that next

Completely different context ??? The child is just since All have sinned and fallen short. It might not be “good” but it’s Gods will and he can choose to end the life. I think the baby is likely in heaven right now, praying for you to join him in heaven with Jesus .

“oh it’s mercy on the baby that’s already been born bc it would suffer being an illegitimate son” bruh imagine having this mindset AND YET still being anti-abortion as a Christian 😵‍💫

A baby was just born. It hasn’t done anything but be born. It can’t have sinned bc Christians believe all children are innocent and inherently go to heaven. God just gets to kill whoever whenever for whatever reason and that’s EVIL AS SHIT. Numbers 31 was evil as fuck and I don’t wanna be anywhere near someone who commanded Moses to go BACK to the Midianites to kill all the women and children he had already spared, let alone take the child virgins for sex slaves to split with the church 🫩

God is not infallible. Why can’t a person make that choice for themselves? If God is all-knowing and all-powerful, he would have already known and expected those choices to be made by that person. He would have known they can’t support a pregnancy or don’t want an illegitimate child, so they get an abortion to prevent that “suffering” as you called it… That would be God’s will if he allowed it and knew it would happen and didn’t use his all-powerful hand to stop it… right?
