Do Babies Go To Hell If They Die?

A Nairalander asked: If A Baby Dies Will He/She Go To Heaven Or Hell?

GRIMMJOE answered:

The babies go to hell, any who dies without Jesus goes to hell. Not to mention we are born sinners.

I disagree: Let’s look at what the Scripture says.

Matthew 18:1-5 says:

1 At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who, then, is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”

² He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. 

³ And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children,^(B) you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.^(C)

⁴ Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.^(D) 

⁵ And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me.^(E)

Verse 3 above tells me that children have an inner pureness that guarantees them Heaven.
