Isaiah 53:6 says "...the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all."
Jesus bore my penalty, necessary because I "sinned in Adam," i.e. the judgment on Adam fell upon us all.

The Bible does not teach that you “sinned in Adam.”
You sinned in yourself. God does not condemn you for the sin of Adam. You did inherit the fallen, corrupt, separated from God, sin-prone nature of Adam, but his personal sin is not imputed to you.
Scripture plainly teaches that sin is not inherited.
Ezekiel 18:20 The soul who sins is the one who will die. A son will not bear the iniquity of his father, and a father will not bear the iniquity of his son. The righteousness of the righteous man will fall upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked man will fall upon him.
Everyone is responsible for their own conduct (Rom. 14:12).
Sinfulness begins in one's youth (Gen. 8:21; Jer. 3:25).
Children must reach a level of maturity before they are able to consciously choose good or evil (Isa. 7:15, 16). Little children are held up as models for those who seek the kingdom (Matt. 18:3; 19:14). The human spirit is not inherited from one’s parents; it is given by God (Ecc. 12:7; Heb. 12:9).

If a human fetus is guilty of Adam’s sin, then all miscarriages and aborted babies go to hell?
You should read verses 5 and 6. These verses are figures of speech, hyperbole, exaggeration to make a strong point, meaning he sinned all his life. A fetus or baby cannot literally do good or bad.
The hyperbole continues in verse 6, speaking of God demanding righteous living from the womb, meaning during our entire life.
We are not inheriting Adam’s personal sin when we are conceived in the womb. That would contradict Ezekiel.
Ezekiel 18:20 The soul who sins is the one who will die. A son will not bear the iniquity of his father, and a father will not bear the iniquity of his son. The righteousness of the righteous man will fall upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked man will fall upon him.
Palm 51:5,6
5 Surely I was sinful at birth,
sinful from the time my mother conceived me.
6 NIV Yet you desired faithfulness even in the womb;
you taught me wisdom in that secret place.
6 NLT But you desire honesty from the womb, teaching me wisdom even there.
6 NASB Behold, You desire truth in the innermost being, And in secret You will make wisdom known to me.
6 ESV Behold, you delight in truth in the inward being, and you teach me wisdom in the secret heart.

Love you my brother in Christ and Thank You for helping out here.
More scripture to digest - 1 Corinthians 15:20-22 & Ephesians 2:1-10 & James 1:18 is not hyperbole
But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.
For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead.
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive
What happens to babies is decided by the LORD
If you remember, the LORD told the Israelites to wipe out the men/women/children/babies who had corrupted themselves.
Just sharing - no need for us to divide over it - your love in Christ is most important = Thank You
In Adam all die, but we don’t have Adam’s sin imputed to us, we just reap the results (sickness, mental problems, aging, death) of Adam’s sin. The sin of Adam made humans mortal, subject to decay and death.
Ezekiel 18:20
The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
Pagan babies were eliminated, but not due to their personal sins, it was to avoid retribution by them when they became older.
I Corinthians 15:20 says we die in Adam, not we sinned in Adam.
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
Ephesians 2 does not say we inherited the guilt of Adam’s sin. It says we were dead in sins. Whose sins? Our own sins.
James 1:18 has nothing to do with our sinning in Adam.
He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created.

The babies were exterminated because of the sins that contaminated them even as children.
These were not the common sins of modern mankind but far more demonic.
Why did GOD destroy every living thing in Noah's Day???

<aborted babies go to hell>
Elect infants go to heaven.
It's in the book (Romans 9:19-29).

Other way around brother. The teaching by the majority that the "great tribulation" is going to be all out war and chaos is a POP teaching, and is not what Lord Jesus and His Apostles showed about the end. Even in 1 Thess.5, Apostle Paul showed that at the end the deceived will be saying, "Peace and safety"!
And because of your attitude, I have to assume you have been sucked into men's false pre-trib rapture, for they especially teach that the coming "great tribulation" is going to be all out war and chaos, to SCARE BELIEVERS into wrongly accepting their FALSE pre-trib Rapture idea. Jesus was emphatic that He comes to gather His saints AFTER... the tribulation (Matt.24:29-31). So if those men will teach 100% OPPOSITE of what Jesus Himself said, then what else have they deceived YOU with?
Since you will not quote the verses, I will. They do not say you sinned in Adam. They say that sin prevailed in mankind ever since Adam sinned. You do not bear the sin of Adam.
Ezekiel 18:10
The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: therighteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
Not one verse in this chain states that you sinned in Adam. Look for yourself. In fact, before the law, sin was not imputed to anyone, but death did reign.
Romans 5:12-21
12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
13 (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.
15 But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.
16 And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification.
17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
