Bible Question: are children that are borne to christian parents considered saved |
Bible Answer: Dear ssv1, Paul in I Cor.7:14 says they are holy and I believe that because the parents are Christians they will be taught to know and love the Lord; but they still will have that free choice when they mature. As someone once said, God has no grandchildren. Salvation is not automatic just because of physical family lines. I believe this is what Jesus was saying in Matthew 3:7-9 and Luke 3:8-9 when He spoke to those Jews who considered themselves heirs of the faith of Abraham because they were Jews by birth and they paid no attention to how they lived their lives or even understood the meaning of faith.
