Bible Question:
LOOKING FOR ALL SCRIPTURE ABOUT: CHILDREN WHO DIE, BUT ARE UNDER "THE AGE OF ACCOUNTABILITY". WHERE THEY SPEND ETERNITY. |
Bible Answer: Greetings daystarg! Among those who subscribe to an Arminian view of election, verses such as these (Matthew 19:14-15, Mark 10:13-16, Luke 18:15-17) help us to come to the conclusion that children who are under the Age of Accountability go to be with Jesus if they, in fact, should die before they make it to the Age of Accountability. If you like, you can peruse through the postings that have already been offered to this Forum that have dealt with the issue of an Age of Accountability. Just do a Search at the right hand side. However, those of us who follow a Calvinist perspective feel a little bit differently about this whole concept of an Age of Accountability, and they would suggest that there is no such thing. However, I personally follow the Arminian perspective. I hope that this helps! - Nolan |
