Wesleyans believe that pollution is inherited from Adam, but his guilt is not imputed to any of his descendants. Each of us earn sin-guilt by our own engagement in sin. (The WAGES of sin is death.) Infants have not sinned and, therefore, are not guilty before God. They go immediately to heaven upon death.

Does this mean that infants to die can approach God entirely on their own merit? Does this mean that they have no need for a High Priest?

Wow I didn't know that or I would have been a Calvinist a long time ago! Do you have scripture on that for doctrinal purposes?
