You mean he should circumvent free will and intervene regardless of whether his help is wanted? Its like mandating / forcing the vax. People are free to choose: he stands at the door and waits; if you ask for help he will give it.
I mean, should he instead allow a person of faith to be murdered? Should he allow a good woman to be raped? Or a good man to be burgled and beaten? Should he allow people with disease to continue suffering?
You roughly summarized a major theme of the entire Bible: the innocent (Able, Jesus, etc.) are sacrificed/killed/harmed by the evil doers (Cain, Romans, corrupt scribes & rabbis). In the end, justice will prevail.
I'm sure those dead kids, innocent people suffering in jail and kidnapped, just love that sentiment that long after they're dead that maybe someday things will be better.
Dang, kind of a dick move for God to conditionally help people

Does that go against free will?

Ask the Almighty fren :)
I have. Nobody seems to answer.
If god "takes the good ones," why do children die of cancer (vaccines notwithstanding)?
Exactly
