No. That’s not what it says. You’re leaving out several things. The more important thing you’re leaving out is “may”.

“Kind or runs counter to the Words of Jesus, doesn’t it?”

No. Christ is not cruel. Again, do you believe children go to hell? How about aborted babies? They don’t believe in Christ, right? So, accrording to you they must AUTOMATICALLY go to hell, right?

Hey, Jesus said He is the way, the truth, and the life, that no one gets to the Father but through Him. I take Jesus at His Word; good intentions, following your conscience without knowing Jesus won't get you to God.

My feelings about cruelty is irrelevant; Christ said He is the only way. If He chooses to save aborted babies that is His choice, but He certainly didn't make it clear. And there isn't a firm Biblical basis for the salvation of the unborn.

We need to be very careful to not place our sense of morality or right and wrong on top of Christ, to limit His justice and mercy based upon our desires or wants.
