Jeff, Good answers to Jerry's questions about heaven. I believe that we are mostly in agreement but I have a question for you: On 12/13/05, Jeff Hallmark <bc_preacher@...> wrote: > 2) How do you get there?

My personal belief is that Scripture teaches that the elect will, without fail, be saved. I also believe that God is good and gracious. My conclusion from these two facts is that God elects children who die before being able to express faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and are therefore saved. I say this, though, with some trepidation because I don't want anything to undermine the requirement of faith for salvation.
