Christians, how many of you became believers when God saved your life?

If you claim God literally intervened divinely, tell me...

...How is it fair for all the people who *weren't saved* but died the same way you potentially would have? How many car crash victims, or cancer patients didn't make it and already good believers do you think have died? Why is it fair that he saved just you, and not them to?

If God saved you, why didn't he save the other? And with unconditional love, how can you claim he shouldn't be saving every life of every one of his children?

Update:

You were saved for a reason? But if it happens after you die, couldn't the ones that he didn't save be deemed worthy of doing the same thing?

Couldn't they do the same thing you were saved for? Why not?

    God is Sovereign. i don't know why certain others passed away in such a manner while i have not. God did not save my flesh but my mind, my psuche - my soul. and He did it with me plopped down indian style in my home as a lad. God doesn't deal with us fairly, if He were fair we'd all be in hell for the evil we have done in His sight. but God gives to us what we need and takes away that which we don't. life is literally a race against the clock, the only thing that stands between a man and judgment is TIME.

    1Samuel 20:3 but truly as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between me and death.

    Trust God in all things death and life. God saves some people's lives, because it was not their time to die. It may be another's time to die, but we do not yet know why. We're too limited to understand His plan right now, but He promises that all our questions will be answered once we get to Heaven.

    "Couldn't they do the same thing you were saved for?" -Again, trust in His plan. He knows who is best to carry out His plan, that's why we were created. For a purpose.

    It's hard to understand why people die young, but He is the ultimate Healer and is with you when it happens. Trust in Him.

    Because they believe they have a personal relationship with him. Thus they are one of his favourites.
