COGwriter<\/a><\/p>\n

Do you know what happens to babies who die?<\/p>\n

Relatively few people know.<\/p>\n

Growing up as a Roman Catholic<\/a>, I was taught about Limbo. I was also told that certain Roman Catholics (such as Anne Catherine Emmerich) had even been given visions of it. Basically, the belief was that babies who die without being baptized as Greco-Roman Catholic were believed to go to a place where they did not suffer, but a place (known as limbus patrum<\/em>) where they also did not receive the joys of being in God’s presence.<\/p>\n

Protestants tend to believe that babies go straight to heaven upon death, though some believe that they deserve perdition in the fires of Gehenna.<\/p>\n

As it turns out, it was the teaching of both the Catholics of Rome and the Protestants of the world on the status of dead infants that got me to look more closely at the old Worldwide Church Of God back in the early 1970s.<\/p>\n

Related to the status of babies who die, the Continuing<\/em>\u00a0Church of God<\/a>\u00a0put together the following video on our\u00a0Bible News Prophecy<\/a>\u00a0YouTube channel:<\/p>\n

Are dead babies saved, lost, or awaiting the resurrection?<\/a><\/h3>\n

What happens to babies when they die? Do they go to Limbo like the Church of Rome once taught? Do they go to heaven if they have not reached the ‘age of accountability’ like many Protestants teach? Do they go to fry in Gehenna fire for eternity for the ‘seed of sin’ in them as John Calvin asserted? Do all have to accept Jesus as Saviour to be saved per Acts 4:1-12? Will all babies that die be resurrected? Could there be a regeneration that lasts 100 years involving babies and others who were uncalled in this life? What about the Great White Throne judgment? What have Eastern Orthodox Catholics taught? What does the Continuing Church of God teach about babies who have died? What does the Bible teach? What did early Christians teach? Steve Dupuie and Dr. Thiel address these matters.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
