If they have the original sin, do they go to heaven?

If they go to heaven, will they know everything, unlike when they were a baby. Also when they get a new heavenly body(says that in the bible), would it be a baby body or an adult body

Justin, A baby goes to heaven until they reach the age of accountability all children will go to heaven. Can you imagine heaven without children? We love children. Who is to say they will be anything but the age they are, when they die?

We are all conceived in sin because of Adam and Eve's disobedience, so the baby is sinful even before birth. The only people who will go to heaven are the few (the Little Flock) of chosen ones who will rule as kings and priests with Christ. As it would not be just for a baby to rule over and judge adults when they had never even lived as children, let alone adults, no babies will be part of this priestly class. There is, however, a very good chance that after Armegeddon, the baby will be resurrected to life again on earth as part of the meek ones (the Great Crowd) who will inherit the earth (see Psalm 37). There, it will be resurrected as a baby and brought up in a much better world than the one we live in now.

Wow, thats a great question! Of course I cant give you the exact answer because no one could know that until they die themselves (if that makes sense) but I think that when a baby dies it would go to heaven (if there is one) and continue on its journey to learn and grow, so I dont think it would know 'everything' so to speak (except maybe that it is dead) and it would still have a babies body. I dont understand the 'original sin' part though, what do you mean by that?

Babies are born innocent and until they are old enough to comprehend right from wrong, they stay innocent...There fore if a baby dies before it can know right from wrong it goes to Heaven to be with the Heavenly Father...What form the baby takes once it is in Heaven I would imagine would be the soul judgement of the Lord...None of us would know until we were there to find out...Maybe they are the Cherubs...

God's foreknowledge of the choices that an infant would have made when old enough to possess the capacity to exercise their free will enables God to judge accordingly. Others hold that the death of a child before they have reached an age of reason means that the child will be in heaven at their death.

Christ taught as much:

Luk 18:15 Now they were bringing even infants to him that he might touch them. And when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
Luk 18:16 But Jesus called them to him, saying, "Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God.
Luk 18:17 Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it."
(ESV Translation) (see also Matthew 19:13-15 and Mark 10:13-16)

More evidence:

David had a son named of Absalom, a son who was sinful and rebellious towards his father and tried to dethrone his father—in other words, a very bad son. Recall that he was killed in a rather horrible death. David’s response was: “Absalom, Absalom, my son, my son, my son…” and he goes on and on and on and there never is any relief and no one can get David to stop wailing, and David cannot overcome the emotion and the horror of it all. The bible tells us that there was no way to comfort David.

Now compare the above with David’s son born of Bathsheba. When the child became ill, David prayed to God to save the life of the baby. David prayed earnestly, and was told that the baby died. David got up, washed, wiped away his tears, and said, “He cannot come to me; I’ll go to him.” See the differences in these two stories?

David wasn’t saying, “I will be buried in the grave near him.” That would have been true of Absalom. This is one indication of the David’s faith in the goodness and grace of God for the **innocent** (baby) and the hopelessness of David, knowing the judgment and the justice of God upon the **guilty** (Absalom).

In another example, consider the babies that were offered to Molech, the pagan god. These babies offered to Molech are referred to in the prophets as “the blood of the innocents” (Jer. 19:4) and when God says they are innocent, that’s a strong indication of the fate of these babies.

Babies will exist in heaven in as spirits, just as all the saints in heaven do. At the day of Judgment the righteous will be joined with their bodies to form a new spiritual body. Babies will exist in the same spiritual body form as the rest of the righteous..

The baby who dies, is so special that they have lived their life purpose in such little time. The spirit returns to the Father in heaven. A baby body or adult we have no answers on this side of eternity which new heavenly body they will be.But, we will be recognized for who we are, so I guess(and only guess) they will be in a baby body.In the arms of Jesus, no safer place to be.

I'm not positive, but I would imagine a baby does go to heaven (at least I hope and pray they do). Why would GOD punish someone who has never committed a sin; it's the parents' responsibilty to have the new one baptized. I can only think that's where cherubs come from. There are different stages of angel-beings. I guess they know what GOD wants them to know.

First what was the original sin?
Knowledge of good and evil!
A baby is incapable of knowing good and evil!

Second the rest of your question goes into pure speculation about what this heaven would be like! There is NOTHING written in the bible that would indicate one way or the other if any of this would happen at all!

Keep in mind the people that came up with this BS didn't think of all these little points. Hell they couldn't even keep the story that they did put in the bible straight. In one place it says Jesus wore a red robe in another it says he wore a purple. Which one is it?

On one place it says God's anger only lasts a moment. In others it says he lasts a long time. Again which is it!

This occurs over and over again in the bible!

Babies that die, are blameless, they go straight to heaven, to the very arms of God, Jesus loves little children, and babies he said unless we humble ourselves, like a little child we will not see the kingdom of heaven, so it stands to reason that, if little children are humble and pure, babies certainly are going to heaven, with out a doubt, and as far as new bodies, sure he said we would receive new bodies, that feel no pain, never die, babies will be like, little angels flying around the throne of God....
