The Age-Old Debate of Child Damnation Needs to End
Send us your Questions and Comments Here
Why do so many believe that infants and children don't go to be with the Lord if they haven't acknowledged Christ? How does the commonly held view of original guilt play into this dilemma? Are there popular theological views that would be contradicted if it's suggested that children go to heaven? What do well-known historical church figures have to say about this topic? Join us to find truth and comfort on this crucial topic that is often (wrongly) confusing and disheartening for many
Send your questions to information@apologetics.org now for our Q&A that'll be released on Friday, Feb 23!
