Why 50?
Why not pick a number closer to his actual age to underscore the point?
Saying "you're not yet 50" to a 30 year old sounds really strange.
Why didn't they use an age closer to Abraham's, does it really make a difference?

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
