Featured Does God Send Babies to Hell?

No, infant death is separate from the issue of the Rapture. While infants that die will receive glorified bodies in the Rapture, in my view ( though I am not dogmatic on this point), we are not speaking about physical resurrection, but spiritual resurrection (new Birth).

Everyone except the Two Witnesses.

They are raptured at the mid-point:


Revelation 11:11-12

King James Version (KJV)


11 And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.

12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.


This is a resurrection that precedes the First Resurrection of Revelation 20.

The First Resurrection in sequence is that of Christ. Paul gives the order:


1 Corinthians 15:22-24

King James Version (KJV)


22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.

24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.

I know some view the Two Witnesses as symbolic of certain things, but it is hard to do that. Antichrist cannot kill the Word of God, for example.

They are men that die physically, are raised to life, and taken into the heaven which is identical to Christ being taken into glory.

Again, you are faced with the dilemma that all unbelievers are destroyed by the time the 75 Day establishment period is over. I believe it is in this time that the Sheep and Goat judgment takes place. Physically living believers enter into the Kingdom, and it is from them that the unbelievers at the end of the Millennial Kingdom come from.

"The rest of the dead" refers to the unbelievers/lost. The point is that the Tribulation Martyrs are raised, but they are the only ones. Unbelievers are not raised from another thousand years.

And the Tribulation Period is the Seventieth Week.

It will be seven solar years.

Not 1260 years.

And it has not happened because there was no Return of Christ 750 or so years ago. Christ Returns at the end of the Tribulation.

I believe the "rest" there speaks about those gathered against God. We also see all nations gathered and judged in Matthew 25.

Agreed. The primary point is that only believers enter the Kingdom, for as Christ taught, "Ye must be born again."

As I said, it cannot be, because both living and dead are resurrected in the Rapture. In the First Resurrection only the dead in Christ are said to be raised, and it is specific to the Tribulation because of the reference to the Antichrist.

But we are getting off the focal point, which is to consider why God would or would not send babies to Hell.


God bless.
