Babies Who Die Know Their Parents in The Resurrection?

Hi Y____,

Just as the masses of humanity will not, at this time, believe in Christ so that we can be Christ’s firstfruit, elect believers, so too, has this child been sacrificed in this age for our sakes.

Rom 11:30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:
Rom 11:31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
Rom 11:32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all.
2Co 4:15 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.

So we should have no doubt that this little child, who died only moments after being born, will certainly receive the mercy of God and will come to know and love his parents for this simple reason:

1Co 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

It is all “for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God”.

While we naturally value this physical life, God sees it as the necessary evil that it is, and is in the process of bringing it all to its well deserved end, bringing salvation and the destruction of death to everyone.

The verses you quoted are so very appropriate at this moment:

Ecc 7:1 A good name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one’s birth.
Ecc 7:8 Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.

I hope these few verses have helped to clear this up for you.

You remain in my prayers.

Your brother in Christ,

Mike
