If they do not believe, they will not make it.

If infants and young children are permitted into heaven unbaptized and unrepentant, not believing in Jesus or choosing to have faith in him.
If the little ones can enter the city of God even though they carry the disease of sin nature, the disease that God must punish and avenge. Then it seems God does not need belief or faith to save someone.
Is this not clearly demonstrated by children who are saved by default?
when Adam was created he had a pure spirit as do all infants and young children and it is only after disobedience was he condemned. Infants and young children have a 'free pass' until they have reached that age of responsibility which is generally 13 y.o based on jewish tradition. Also because of the law were people condemned but in the new covenant based on grace and forgiveness even a child who murdered but repented correctly can go to heaven.
Any man or women who have been a parent knows you do not expect the same from an infant as you do a child of 6. At birth they only have a sucking erg. You really think its just to judge them the same? God does not.
And yet Jesus said to see the Kingdom we must become like little children.Age of accountability is not found in the bible.
Obviously the bible doesn't have adequate information on this, and Christians are left reading between the lines.
Something this important should be covered in the bible, I do have a theory where children go. But it's not biblically supported, so you probably won't be interested.
No newborn goes to Hell.Children and babies are NOT saved by default.

Which is to be understood as I read it that little children do not sin. And especially newborns or infants. Being they're not cognizant of doing wrong. Nor do they have the capacity to repent and seek Jesus.
No newborn goes to Hell.
Matthew 18:3Yes. One must "trust", or "have faith" like a little child.
Do not skip that critical word.
Matthew 18:3
And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven
Matthew 19:14
But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.”
Mark 10:13-16
And they were bringing children to him that he might touch them, and the disciples rebuked them. But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, “Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.” And he took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them.
Luke 18:17
Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.”

Show us the verse that says children go to Hell.Do these verses say that all children go to Heaven?
What does sin mean? Is it age dependent?
Doesn't Jesus die also for children?
Show us the verse that says children go to Hell.
Show us the verse that says children go to Hell.
Ah, thank you. Infants, newborns, children, do not possess the capacity of logic.Logic.
Believers go to the Heaven. So unbelievers do not go to Heaven.
That is enough.

Parents aren't the issue here. The laws of God and accountability for our sins is.Parents can teach them to have faith in Christ.

Now all you have to do is back that up with scripture precisely.It is a serious issue. If parents do not guide their children to the Lord, then if a child died before he can choose, then he won't make it to the Heaven.
