I have no idea if there are babies in hell. I am perfectly comfortable with the idea that God spares abortion victims, miscarriages, etc., however, God will have mercy on whom He will have mercy. We can't know for certain who they are, as Harley said.
I have no idea what your inference is about babies in hell somehow helping to save the elect. I'll take that as simply gratuitous.
Why would God offer human sacrifice of an innocent child to the devil?
He wouldn't. I have no idea why you would ask or what connection you are attempting to draw with Reformed theology. There is none.
John Calvin said "there are babies a span long in hell". Do you actually believe this?
I don't know. I am with Harley in being unfamiliar with that particular quote. I would have to know the context before commenting further.
FK to Stfassisi-””He wouldn't. I have no idea why you would ask or what connection you are attempting to draw with Reformed theology. There is none.””
In Post #4981 You said “”All men are evil when they are born””
This is why Reformed theology makes no sense again ,FK,because if the baby that died was born evil than how does it not end up in hell? Does reformed theology teach that there is evil in heaven?
You told Kosta that Hitler could have been saved if he repented before his death,but the innocent child you call evil could not consciously make such a decision.
Do you look at a new born baby and say to yourself...
“look at that evil child”? This sounds ridiculous ,but this is in fact what reformed theology teaches
Dear FK, we are NOT born evil,we are born wounded,thus the need for Baptism
I honestly think that preaching we are born evil could lead someone to justify abortion by thinking they are killing something evil.
Did that thought ever cross your mind,Dear brother?
