The false teachings of Calvinism???

How would you answer my question in post #53? Are babies who die innocent and have no need for a Savior? Or why do they need a Savior if they're innocent? Don't cast stones.

The Bible teaches that Jesus came to save the lost(Luk 19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.)
If you saw I man drowning in a lake and you tossed him a rope, pulled him in them you would be saving his life. All babies and young children have no sin. Thus are not lost and have no need of a savior. Sin is defined as a transgression of Gods Law (1Jo 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.)
Babies are not saved they are safe since they are not capable of transgressing Gods word. As far as casting stones if teaching that babies are totally depraved
utterly indisposed, disabled, and made opposite to all good, and wholly inclined to all evil, do proceed all actual transgressions" - Chap. VI, sec. 1-4.
of the Westminster Confession of Faith in the Presbyterian Book of Confessions. is not casting stones upon the innocent I don't know what is.
