AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 18:6 but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble and sin [by leading him away from My teaching], it would be better for him to have a heavy millstone [as large as one turned by a donkey] hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea. [Mark 9:42; Luke 17:2] |
Subject: Do all little ones believe? |
Bible Note: (continued from previous post) And, forgive me, just one more thing. I'm sure this one has been posted before when discussing this subject. James 4:17 Therefore, to one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin. Does a baby/infant know what sin is before they are taught? Finally brother charis, I am not speaking directly to you. I read in one of your posts that you do not believe that all babies/infants are in hell but there is no scriptural eveidence that says that they are all in heaven. Agreed. 2 Tim 2:19 Nevertheless, the firm foundation of God stands, having this seal, "The Lord knows those who are His," and, "Everyone who names the name of the Lord is to abstain from wickedness." You also suggested that I be bold. I will boldly post this: John 3:30 "He must increase, but I must decrease" Thanks again charis! Always your brother in Christ Jesus, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |
