CHILDREN -DEATH OF
We know that infants enter the kingdom, for we are convinced that all of our race
who die in infancy are included in the election of grace, and partake in the
redemption wrought out by our Lord Jesus. Whatever some may think, we believe
that the whole spirit and tone of the word of God, as well as the nature of God
himself, lead us to believe that all who leave this world as babes are saved. 1439.583
Refrain from undue weeping, for they shall come again from the land of their
captivity. Thy dead ones shall live again. Mother of mortals, thou didst well to weep;
but thy children live, so that thou art the mother of immortals; then, why canst thou
sorrow? Dry thine eyes, and bless God that thou hast another link with heaven, and
that thou hast helped to fill the choirs that, day without night, circle the throne of
God with hallelujahs. 2645.513
It is a wondrous joy to be the father of those who, day and night, wait upon God in
heaven, and see his face, and serve him evermore; so be not sad or downcast if that is
your case. 2726.225
