I heard that since we are born with original sin, we have to accept Jesus as the Lord and Savior in order to enter the kingdom of Heaven. The only way is through him according John's gospel. If a child dies early, with the sin and not accepting Christ. What happens to them?
And I'm not a troll like the idiotic Magooga, I actually want to learn so someone please explain and bring your sources.
Thanks.

I believe children that have not reached the age of accountability are covered by God's grace. I do not think we can know exactly when a child becomes accountable, but I believe it comes some time after a child is able to understanding the Gospel. Jesus died on the cross for everyone's sins, because children before the age of accountability are not capable of accepting His gift, they are protected under the Blood.
