Biblical Answer

The objection of unfairness takes a slightly different form when people say that it is unfair of God to save some people and not to save all. This objection is based on an idea against God demonstrates that. I think this is probably true, but it does not seem to be a conclusive argument, for it assumes too much about what would or would not happen. Such uncertainty may not help very much to lessen someones sense of unfairness.

However, the Bible teaches that God is merciful and gracious, and that He gives us mercy and patience, even when we dont deserve it. This is seen in the story of the master who hired workers at different times of the day. When those hired earlier complained about this seeming injustice, the master replied to one of them, I am not being unfair to you, friend. Didnt you agree to work for a denarius? Take your pay and go. I want to give the one who worked only one hour the same pay as you. This parable shows that God is not bound by human notions of fairness, but rather He is motivated by mercy and grace.

The idea that God is unfair is also challenged by the fact that we were all born with a sinful nature, and that we all deserve death. But God is merciful and gracious, and He offers us salvation through Jesus Christ. This is not fair in human terms, but it is a demonstration of Gods love and mercy towards us. As the Bible says, God is not fair without the love, but He is merciful and gracious. This is a truth that we can be grateful for, and one that we can cling to in times of uncertainty and doubt.
