The reality of 100% being born to die, is biblical proof that all who are born of the flesh are born with inherent sin, "the wages of death."It is a far gone conclusion. However, it is not one that is bublical.

It is true that all have fallen short.
However to receive Salvation, you have to understand why you need it, and turn to Christ to receive it by free-will.
A baby has no mental acuity to be able to do any of that... and does not God know it?
They are exempt.
The interesting question is.....at what point does this exemption end and they become : John 3:36 ?
As on that DAY, everything has changed regarding their eternity.
Good thinking!It is true that all have fallen short.

Who told you they were "innocent?"How can any babe be innocent, if born with sin?

Nonsense.Who told you they were "innocent?"
Death...is the biblical proof of guilt.
in that case, it seems to me, that all go to the same place is at the very least misleading, and really a lie? Samuel (accepted) clearly told King Saul (rejected), you and your sons will be here with me
that is easily explained by a…better understanding of “dust of the earth” imo—iow if Daniel meant Sheol there, why not just say Sheol? if not to hide wisdom from the wise, iow—or even by applying the following verse,
wherein no one actually rises from the dead literally, which is what we observe, at least to date
here we rely on possibly reading too much into a parable
so, just some food for thought, being as how you most likely are not going to become an immortal
''The wicked....'' That isn't indicting all unborn babies.The Bible nowhere speaks that we need to understand salvation, nor turn to Christ to receive it by free will. Man in and of himself, are spiritually dead and does not have not the power nor the capacity of free will to choose for spiritual things!
In John 15:16 Jesus said: "Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you...." And, for example, John the Baptist was saved when he was at his mother's womb!
There are no exemptions! Psalms 58:3 reads: :The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies."
Well, we read the example of John the Baptist. Luke 1:43 reads: "For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy."

I no longer argue with sinners, nor the carnal minded.Who told you they were "innocent?"

Nonsense.
Babies, in utero babies too, are innocent.
Babies souls are of God in the womb, if life begins at conception.
Babies souls do not sin.Period.
Ezekiel 18:20
The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not suffer for the iniquity of the father, nor the father suffer for the iniquity of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself.
It was a rhetorical question.I no longer argue with sinners, nor the carnal minded.
Scripture as written has no effect on them.
well, babies dont talk?
im all for being critical of the modern day teachings of preachers, Jun, but i think there might be more support for an (unspecified) age of accountability than that?
yet we give little kids a pass for that behavior all the time, right
''The wicked....'' That isn't indicting all unborn babies.
That's a retrospective for the likes of Adam Hussein, Pol Pot, Stalin, etc....
If God damns with sin the unborn, and should that unborn pass away in miscarriage, are they destined for Hell?
Until he was born, then he wickedly went on speaking lies.
I really don't think some people look to closely at what they are trying to teach.
“life” and “soul” are from the same root word, rd, so not buying that wadrIt's not misleading to them that know the difference between the soul of a man, and the mortal body
all go to the same placeThe soul awakens in hell or in the presence of the Lord in heaven
but again, you really arent responding to the q, rd. Ive yet to meet the man who confidently states “i quibble with scripture” anyway, ehI don't quibble with Scripture.
you may state that as a fact if you like, and i wont argue, but understand that that just makes you a guy who says you know, and it does not make it true, ok?Daniel is speaking of the resurrection of the dead bodies in graves, some to everlasting life and some to everlasting shame.
fair enough; i once used the same argument.Not a parable:
There was a certain rich man
well, i guess its ok to believe that if you like rd, although you cannot Quote these from anywhere either, im pretty sureAll angels and souls of men are created to live forever
being as how you most likely are not going to become an immortal
I'm not trying to. The immortals were pagan gods
All angels and souls of men are created to live forever
ok ty rdYou can try writing the rest of your stuff in plain speech
No one has ever gone up to heaven but He Who came down from it, the son of man right?
so iow if you start with the ones that that speak literally, and then add the ones with flowery/religious interpretations in on that already existing understanding, you will be less likely to misinterpret the flowery ones—due to your confidence, and willingness—forcing you to ignore the straightforward ones
cant say i blame you buddy; it was just an idea anyway :) Ok tks for all the facts yoYou can try writing the rest of your stuff in plain speech. I no longer try to unravel peoples' personal witty code
you too, Scott? This is some ridic cult of sol bs that you cannot Quote anywhere, imoWho told you they were "innocent?"
Death...is the biblical proof of guilt.
