In?

Hi,

Am I using the preposition "in" correctly in these sentenses?

1. His journey to the past provided him with a justification in the present time.
2. His journey abroad provided him with a contradiction in the present time.
3. His journey to the future provided him with a compliance in the present time.

Thanks, A.L.

1. His suffering in the past provides him with a justification for his callousness in the present time.

3. His premonition of the future provides him with a remedy for his indifference in the present time.

2. His journey abroad a while ago provided him with a contradiction for his present social stance.
3. His premonition of the future provided him with a remedy for
