I'm sure this topic has been discussed in the past. However, since I'm new to this board I'd like to hear people's ideas.
Psalm 51:5 suggests we are born in sin. To an extent we are formed in sin.
If the only way to reach salvation is acceptance of Christ to wash away our sins, can a baby or child that has not accepted Christ go to heaven? If so, what scripture validates that?
I know this is a touchy subject because we are so protective our children.
Perhaps the presbyterians have it right to baptize babies as a whole house baptism? There scriptures indicating whole house baptisms in connection with being "saved."
Maybe the key is baptism?
The thought of children not going in heaven can seem grisly, but is it really scripturally accurate?
Discuss.
