According to the Bible the yardstick for making heaven is giving your life to Christ. So if a young child dies at a young age and can't confess Jesus as Lord because he/ she can't talk or too young to comprehend.

Will he/she go to heaven.

Bible scholars
Heaven.....

Christianity welcomes all. Atheism is not for dullards, you need to understand the principles of whatever you practise.

Just because someone doesn't believe in your STORY BOOK (BIBLE), does that make him or her an atheist?
Hmm, riddle me.

That should answer the question.

At death, we simply stop existing!

We stop existing after death? Great!.

Please also answer the following:

What made us to come into existence in first place?

Where were we before we were born?

Why is it that people born same day don't die same day.. E.g my mom is a twin and her twin died almost twenty years ago?...

In my own opinion, I think he'll and heaven are both on this earth.
When you get to Stockholm, Venice, nice, Luxembourg, Dubai Japan and those other beautiful country , you will see heaven.
When you get to makoko, sambisa, South Sudan, Djibouti , Myanmar , you will see he'll.
Now think of it, the abject poverty some people are experiencing in this part of the world isn't their making but by the powers in authority , while the affluence those guys are experiencing in Dubai and the rest is also by the powers in authority.
If you ask some citizens of Dubai and the worderful world they will tell you they will really want to see and feel what those in sambisa and Djibouti are feeling . Why cos they know they are in heaven.

I don't know if I will go to hell or heaven , but what I know is I will make sure I live in this world like I am in heaven.

The baby goes back to Heaven where it came from. Why? Because a baby doesn't have the consciousness of good and evil yet while it is a baby, even though it was born into sin and has the seed or implant of the knowledge of good and evil inside it's DNA. And also because by the finished works of Christ, the keys of hell and death is now with Jesus, meaning that Satan doesn't decide who goes to hell anymore, he can't lay claims to the spirits of men with impunity like he used to do. And finally because God loves children. He said, Allow the children to come to me. So every child that dies is going to Heaven, not by their own power, but by the grace and mercy of God. There is no single baby in hell, not even 1

@bolded, quite a bold claim there.

Intriguing.

Pray tell, how do you "know" this?

I mean, have you been there, that you can confidently assert with 100% certainty that there's not a single one baby in Hell?

The baby goes to heaven - one biblical reference is the experience of King David after the death of the baby he had with Bathsheba "But now he is dead; why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.”
II Samuel 12:23 NKJV (you can read the whole chapter )

when they die until they reach the point in which they are able to make a decision for or against Christ. David had a child die, and he comforted himself with the thought, “Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me” (2 Samuel 12:23). David knew that he would see his child in heaven one day.

Leave the poor baby alone.
This is not according to the Bible it's according to your teachers. What did the Bible say about those who lived and died without having the chance to be preached to?

God Almighty is a righteous judge, He will do justice because they never had the opportunity to use their will, I feel they will join the fathers of the old who pleased God and died before Jesus came to earth, and will become perfect there and join the rapture at the very end.

May God grant us understanding. Amen.

Your first question, no one knows exactly "what" that could be. Anyone who claims to know, is lying. Humans just make up shits to fill in the blanks, doesn't make those things true. And funny enough, on closer examination, those things have been proven to hold little water and force. They don't make sense to logical sane mind.

Your second question, no one knows exactly where we were before we came here. No one. And like the first question, anyone who claims to know, is merely lying. Reason these things out for yourself rather than following the narrative you were taught in Sunday school or was it the madrasa, what you read in the Bible and Quran, depending on whether you're a Christian or Muslim, books that have been proven to be filled with so much errors and contradictions that to a sane, thinking mind, they are atrocious and an insult.

Your third question could well rightly be considered illogical, but I'll respond all the same. Humans are different. Each human being is different and unique from the other. Even twins. That they are born same time doesn't mean they have to die same time.

Think! It's not difficult. Look beyond the indoctrinations you were subjected to while growing up.

I use to tell my friends that until you have fully understood Genesis 1-3, the Bible will always make you look stupid...
People should understand that it was God's breath that brought Adam to life, some translation use breadth some use spirit.. When God takes the breadth the body experiences death.. The body is usually buried where it returns to dust just as God has told Adam...

We are God's spirit dwelling within a body made of dust. We are the miracle we seek.

Psalm 104 :29-31 and Ecclessiatics 12:7

Good explanation. But, how do we relate the Book of Genesis 1-3 as you explained and the story between The Rich man and Lazarus?

Thanks

Lies from the horrible pit of hell.
Deception that the devil use to make sinners comfortable.
Ask those who had near death experience, the will all tell you of tunnel of life, the judgement after the tunnel and the final destination.

I don't understand the God we serve... Me as a mortal man, I can't create Billions of people and watch them perish all in the name of not accepting Christ.

Why creating them if I know they would come to the world and not accept Christ? Why won't I leave them in heaven and be chilling...

Again u pray to God for many years for something , he will not do it.. Even a mortal man will grant your request if u re persistent, but this God decide to favour some people and leave some...

Imagine some of your saying an innocent child that died will go to hell fire, for what? what sin did he commit?

Sure. Hell is for sinners. Babies by nature donot have souls stained by sin so they sure won't go to hell. The criteria for judgement is the knowledge of good and evil. That is the fruit that cut us away from God in the first place.

Once you know wrong from right your soul is active and you can receive impulses from the Spirit of God - conviction or the spirit of the devil - temptation.

Jesus started by saying that we should be like unto little children to inherit salvation, Matthew 18:3. Then he said, 'let the children come unto me..', Matthew 19:4 acknowledging the growth and development of the child with respect to knowing Christ before the soul is lost. Finally, a real danger of losing such a child to sin and warning custodians in Matthew 18:6 of the dire consequences of not getting their children to salvation as quickly as possible.

Children are blameless at birth but like any fresh produce the natural law of decay soon takes over, the earlier you take action to process, i.e. refrigerate, can, salt, preserve it the better. But this is just an interim action.

You can buy time by creating the right, godly environment around them but like every preserved produce, these children will eventually reach their sell by date in innocence and will decay no matter what you do. At this point they will require a complete overhaul only Jesus Christ can do.

Your responsibility is to ensure you keep them safe till Jesus is ready to transform and reconstruct them.

The baby has not yet reach the age of accountability, everyone born of a woman is a sinner, so you know the answer already. Psalms 51:5 (KJV) Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

A lot of Christians are saying the kids would go to heaven,fine but let me ask you when God instructed Samuel to slay the amalekites why didn't he spare the children since they were innocent ?

BluntTheApostle:


Your answer is right there in your post.

Accepting Christ is not all that there is to salvation. You must accept Him consciously. Same with baptism. That is why I have problems with infant baptism which the Catholics perform. How can you baptize a baby who does not even have the faculty to appreciate what you are doing to him or her?

For someone to be baptized, they have to first consciously accept Christ. They must make that decision themselves. It is not the decision of their parents or pastors to make for them.

So, in this light, a baby has not developed enough cognition to make the decision of accepting or rejecting Christ. So, how can you baptize them? You only baptize someone who has accepted Christ.

If the baby dies, he can't be termed as having rejected Christ. There is no decision that the baby has made that you can judge him by.

Going with the last sentence in your post would u also say that adults who died without hearing about Christa would get a free pass to go to heaven ?

It goes back to our Father in heaven.
Everybody is born with original sin that is the sin of Adam Eve, and it is only baptism that can take the original sin away, what if the baby wasn't baptised before death?
