The Highway Forums General Discussion Theology Discussion Forum Babies and Election

So are we falling out along mostly demoniational lines here? Any surprises? It seems to me that if you take the hard line on election then a person is either elect or not regardless of age. However, if thats the case you can't help but acknowledge God's Sovreignty and at least admit that, should He decide that the dead unborn and new babies are elect he wouldn't have to let us in on the secret.

I have known several folks who were considered to be retarded or otherwise mentally incompetant-at least by the State. Some were still able to come to faith in Christ while others did not. However, that is merely personal experience and should be weighted accordingly.
