Unborn babies that die by miscarriage or abortion do go to heaven. This is what Christians believe in. We know this because the babies were never told about the Lord Jesus Christ attoning for our sins. These babies don't go to heaven because they were pure because that is completely untrue. Even when a child is in the womb it is a sinful human being. Because of the fall of Adam, no one has been a perfect person even from the moment they are concepted. We don't know if it is 100% true that these babies go to heaven, but we are as sure as there is a God. Even though each baby is so tiny, they also have a soul. Since they were never given a chance to accept Christ, He intercedes for them so that they can enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Christ loves everyone no matter how small they are or how ever bad they may be. So I hope that answered your question.

Well, it depends on you beliefs. Most religions which recognize heaven recognize that life begins at conception. Therefore (if this is your belief), an abortion or miscarriage ends that life and the soul therefore goes to heaven.

As for "how do you know"? That, like so many things, is a question of faith. But I think you would know because you believe in heaven. If one has faith enough to believe in God and heaven, then I don't think it's a stretch to believe that these babies go there also.

I'm glad God decides this sort of thing, and we don't have to. We can trust him to do what is fair and right. Remember He is all merciful and all love. II Samuel 12:23 seems to indicate that even if a child dies as a result of the parent's sin, that doesn't mean the child will be punished eternally.

I wouldn't want to see a mother aborting a baby because she was sure God would bring it straight to heaven where it wouldn't have such a hard time of it as it might on earth. That might be true for the baby, but the mother is likely to suffer guilty feelings and regret for the rest of her life, even though, like King David, she can be forgiven for her sin.

I would hate to see a bereft mother feeling pressured to pay money to a church to pray for her unborn and unbaptized children to get into heaven. We have to trust God for the fate of unborn children we have not had an opportunity to teach and mold, just as we have to trust Him for adult children who have grown up and become wayward, and are no longer looking to us for influence.

I believe they do go to heaven and as for how do I know???? Well i guess noone knows for sure till they die themselves and see them up in heaven but in my heart I am sure babies that die at any stage of pregnancy by miscarriage or abortion do go to heaven.

There are different beliefs and philosophies too.. Some might believe in reincarnation and coming back as another being etc.

Yes, they do return to heaven, although, they were born in iniquity. Reason being, they haven’t had a chance to exercise their free will of choice. Which is the basis of a person being able to live in eternity with God or not. In other words, they haven’t had an opportunity to choose right or wrong, God’s will or not, therefore, they are covered automatically by the blood of Jesus Christ as innocent.

Be blessed and remain strong.

Yes, these babies do go to Heaven. We are judged by God for what we know or have learned about Him and abour our religious beliefs. Since a baby can know little of God and can not discern right from wrong God accepts them as they are and gives them a loving home in Heaven with him. I hope this helps.

Of course!
Babies are innocent and good - and good people go to Heaven.
I don't buy into the whole religious mumbo-jumbo about you have to "believe" to get into Heaven. I know if you're a good person, that's where you'll go.
Hitler is in Hell for example, Mother Theresa is in Heaven.

If you're Catholic, then technically no. Unbaptized souls don't go to heaven; they go to limbo. But just last year (or this year, I can't remember) the Vatican got together and decided that there was no limbo - because I guess religion can be changed that easily. So, following this newly-formed philosophy, unbaptized souls that are free from sin do indeed go to heaven.

I don't know how it is for non-Catholics.

I can't know for sure what happens, but if there is a heaven then no one better then babies should be in heaven don't you think?
