Bible Question:
Greetings everyone, I have just done a word search and only found 11 posts containing this word. It seems that no one is bothered by it, it's a doctrine that is as old as time and is as relevant as tomorrow. In times past it was of great importance but now in the "civilised" age do we "Protestants" have an answer or are we content/complacent? What is he on about? I was asked a simple enough question, " when a child dies, in the age of innocence, where does the soul go and how can the soul return to Heaven if sin is not allowed into the presence of Holy God? The word I was researching was," Limbo" the Catholic doctrine that is their answer, what is ours? Please do not waste time in telling me the rights and wrongs of this doctrine, or resurrect the old argument between scriptural and traditional, just give me an answer, or your understanding of this question. Thank you all and may the Holy Spirit inspire us. SHALOM RJJ. |
Bible Answer: RJJ, The apostil Paul wrote, I did not know sin except by the Law. The Bible tells us that we are to be judged on our works weather they were good or evil. When a child dies not knowing the law then there is no judgement for sin. The Bible states that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of Heavan. Sence a child dies their flesh returnes back to the dust of the earth and the child goes to God.They are in Heavan with Jesus. This is how I answer those with that question. DL5 |
