Bible Note: DBR, clearly I've no objection to being quoted, but my post of December 2001 didn't teach that children will be given "a second chance"; the Bible doesn't teach that and I have never taught it. Infants and tiny children are not accountable for sin; this view has been generally held by orthodoxy for centuries. There is a significant difference between unaccountability and being given a second chance. No where in Scripture is there the slightest indication of anyone of any age having been given a second chance at eternal life beyond the grave. Thus, my quotation that you have offered in answer to BradK's questions to you does not and was not intended to answer them; Brad wants biblical proof that babies are given a second chance, and my post of 2001 simply does not address that matter at all. My signature closing to you, as always, are the questions that now I ask for the fifth time: Are you JW? Do you affirm or deny the full deity of the Lord Jesus Christ? --Hank |
