Under the influence of false doctrine, is passage has been wrested in the ideavours to prov'e that infants go to :aven at death. THIS ABOLISHES FAITH ” AS A CONDITION OF SALVADOR puts a premium on ignorance, and impels us to discount the value of the :riptures. “ THE JUST SHALL LIVE Y FAITH” (Rom. 1:17; Gal. 3:11). "But ithout faith IT IS IMPOSSIBLE to please im; for He that cometh to, God must ilieve that He is, and that He is A 3WARDER OF THEM THAT DILIEINTLY SEEK HIM.” (Heb. 11:6.) ilienated from the life * of God -[ROUGH IGNORANCE.” (E’ph. 4:18.) I'he Gospel of Christ IS THE POWER God unto salvation to everyone THAT ELIEVETH.” (Rom. 1:16.) If infants e saved IN IGNORANCE AND “ WITHITT FAITH,” and go to heaven at death, cn these things are not true, and it a great pitv we did not all die in fancy, and not grow to maturity, per.ips to learn the Gospel only to disobey id be lost! An interpretation that leads such conclusions MUST BE FALSE, le root of the error is a WRONG DOCSINE CONCERNING HUMAN NATURE, hich of necessity upsets Christ’s docine of ” the Kingdom of God ” (Mark :15) and the relation of children thereto. The Apostle Paul says: “Brethren, BE DT CHILDREN IN UNDERSTANDING: ►wbeit in malice be Children, but in iderstanding be men.” (1 Cor. 14:20.) irist said: “The good seed are the chilen of the kingdom,” because they heard, iderstood, and, obeyed. Children coniered MERELY AS CHILDREN are noing in the sight of God; yea, “ALL NA:ONS BEFORE HIM ARE AS NOTHING: id they are counted to Him less than ►thing and vanity.” i (Isa. 40:7.) They e but mortal descendants of our first irents who were condemned TO DIE •cause of sin. (Gen. 2:17.) Adam- and ;e were expresslv CUT QFF FROM THE SEE OF LIFE, “lest they should EAT ND LIVE forever." (Gen. 3:22.) “Dust ou art and unto dust shalt thou return,” as the sentence. “ Death reigns ” over ose that die in infancy. (Rom. 5:14.) lEY LIE STILL AND ARE QUIET. Why died I not from the womb? Why did not give up the spirit when I came out the belly? . . . for now should I HAVE YIN STILL AND BEEN QUIET, I should ive slept.” (Job 3:11-13.) Thus though fants cannot be glorified in heaven they rtainly are not tormented in hell. They lie quiet " in the Bible hell, THAT IS -IE GRAVE, unconscious of any loss, for there is no work, nor device, nor knowrig e, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither ou goest.” (Eccl. 9:10.) ‘‘. For . g know that they shall die; but THE BAD KNOW NOT ANYTHING.” (Eccl. 5.) "ALL GO UNTO ONE PLACE: ALL RE OF THE DUST, AND ALL TURN TO LIST AGAIN.” (Eccl. 3:20.)
