Hello christanons!
I was just in an argument with my parents about if Young children and babies will go to heaven when they die. It's a bit morbid but i believe that kids are held accountable for their sins but my parents think that God will take mercy on them and allow them to heaven because kids are innocent. My parents thought what I had to say was very far fetched and unlikely. I hope they are right but I doubt it.
What do you guys think? If it is true then when are they held accountable?

what is a baby accountable for? give examples.
Jonathan Murphy
Maybe I shouldn't have said baby I'm thinking more of toddlers. They lie, steal and sometimes intentionally hurt other children.
Jordan Ortiz
why? what's the difference? morally they are both retarded and don't understand the context of their actions and the consequences.

I know but if children are saved because they don't know right and wrong than doesn't that also mean that all of north and south america were saved before European colonization?

Paul wrote about this in his letter to the Romans. Humans have a natural law written in their hearts and are judged by it if they have no revelation. But they have to be fully rational and mature enough, and not retarded or babies.

So, if a newborn is killed or a miscarriage happens, the soul automatically goes to hell?
Charles Fisher
Conceived in sin.

If there was no risk of them going to hell then abortion would be a blessing as you would be sending kids to heaven.

That's exactly what I was thinking when talking to my parents. Sure they won't be able to serve God on earth but they get a free pass to heaven. As a parent killing your kid would be a guarantee that your child goes to heaven.
