Q: When babies die, will they be saved?
A: My brother Bob and his wife had a tragic experience many years ago. While serving as missionaries in Ethiopia, they had a baby. But it was dead. On that terrible day it was raining hard. Bob carried the tiny, still form out of the hospital and took it to a quiet place on a hill-side, where he buried it deep in the ground. The rain brushed the tears of anguish from his cheeks and gently laid them on the grave. When I heard that story for the first time it broke my heart. It still does.
Someday that faraway grave will open, and a little baby’s heart will start beating. His eyes, so long closed by death’s silent sleep, will blink, and he’ll see Jesus smiling down at him. And he won’t be afraid. The baby’s parents are looking forward to a joyous reunion on that day. This time it won’t be raining, and the tears staining their cheeks will spring from unspeakable joy.
Babies can’t sin. They don’t know right from wrong. But they do know when they’re loved. Heaven will be filled with children, like my brother’s baby, who’ll never know anything but love. «Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice and come out» (John 5:28, 29). I hope today’s the day.
