Ok. like, abortioned babies get killed, right? But if they get killed, they have to go to hell because they can't go to heaven, but they can't go heaven because they never even knew god, but they couldn't know god because they were killed. So isn't god being unfair by sending abortioned babies to hell? or, if he doesn't, then what happens to them? cause they certianly can't enter heaven because heaven has to be sinless....but then again....abortioned babies probably are sinless because they never had a chance to commit sin....but we are all born into sin.... ahhhh i'm so confused. help me so that my faith won't be disrupited!

No. First of all, no just god would send a baby to a fire and brimstone hell. That is just nonsense.
Secondly, there are many opinions about how and when life starts - many cultures do not think that life starts instantly at conception. Some even feel the soul does not arrive until a few days after the baby arrives and is thriving.
Third, religion is there to help us in our lives - it's a guide and a tool. You need to decide for yourself what happens. I think that an abortion can be a soul changing it's mind - and I think that if they miss one chance to incarnate they will try again later. I think that if God were really so outraged by it, it simply would have never occurred to us. But there is much to learn from adversity and we face it in our lives all the time. Nothing is ever really black and white.
There is no more proof to show that my way is more correct that yours, but it makes sense to me and feels right, even though I have never had this as a personal issue myself.
Peace!

Hi, sweetheart, I hope you're serious about this question, 'cuz it's not a joke. There is a thing called the age of accountability. If a 2 year old found a loaded gun and shot and killed his brother, God would not hold him accountable for the act. He didn't know any better. The God I know would never punish an unborn chilld. Every child is born without sin. God takes them to his Kingdom and ever lasting life. Trust in this---if you are too young or too mentally incapacitated to understand the consequences of your actions, you will NOT go to Hell. God is not stupid. He understands that some people are more aware and conniving than others. Trust me, God will not punish the innocent.

According to scripture all children will indeed be in heaven.
Mat 19:13-14 Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should put his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them. But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
Children under a certain age, even though born in sin are most certainly innocent of carnal knowledge.
The first thing that Adam and Eve did when they sinned and pride crept in was to cover their crotches. Young children have no sense of pride and will gladly run around buck naked with a big smile. To God they are completely innocent of anything other than being conceived.
If fact, aborted babies will probably have the greatest inheritance in the kingdom of heaven.
Mat 19:29-30 And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.
Children ushered in first as many with long lives and numerous works stand by and await there turns.

Any one under the age of accountability will return to God with out being subject to judgment. That age can vary due to someone mental ability but tends to be around 8 years old. Think about it baby's cannot sin as the do not yet know right from wrong, it is not a sin but a blessing to be born.

They are perfectly innocent. God will not send them to hell. They are not capable of sin. It is not their fault that their parents murder them before they have a chance to know Him. God is just and fair, kind and merciful and loving. I think that they will go to heaven even though they are not baptized because I believe there is a such thing as baptism by desire. I feel that aborted babies would fall into this catagory because they did not have the chance to be baptized.
God bless,

Their souls go to heaven, but the question is do they have a soul?? Some of those abortioned criatures do not even get to be completely formed, so that's really confusing. Anyway, I think kids, all of them go to heaven, I cant picture a little kid murdered by a mad man and his soul going to hell, if that ever happened then my faith will go straight to the toilet. We must not question God, but it's ilogical to condemn a kid, and as I still believe God is merciful and just that will never happen.

God does not hold accountable those that have not either heard of Him or those that are for one reason or another unable to understand the concept of God. A child that was killed by abortion still belongs to God and the loving God I know would draw them close to him.

If they go to Heaven then they weren't born with original sin and the Christian pro-life argument is severely weakened. If they go to Hell then god is consistent but he's also a sadistic jerk for doing such a thing to an unborn baby. Because of these things and others, Christians can't make up their minds.
I guess Yahweh forgot to include the abortion chapter in the Bible.

Your question is responded in detail in Dante's Inferno. the proper aspect of hell is termed Limbo, and three sorts of people stay there: a million. little ones who died formerly they could be baptized. 2. Virtuous those who died formerly Jesus. 3. Virtuous those who lived in parts of the international the position Christian missionaries have under no circumstances reached. Limbo isn't an gruesome position, and definitely, one receives to fulfill many very thrilling people there, such as Virgil (who's Dante's handbook) and Socrates. even if it really is unhappy because the inhabitants be conscious of they're going to under no circumstances see God. it truly is why, in the middle a even as and the Renaissance, midwives, medical doctors, and clergymen continuously carried a baptismal syringe with them. If it considered as if the start should be a stillbirth, they could insert the syringe and baptize the fetus previous to start. (i wager you should call that "partial start baptism.") i ask your self in case you are able to purchase a baptismal syringe from a surgical products broking immediately.
