    Babies born and unborn destined for heaven? Psalm 58:3 The wicked are strangers from the womb: they go astray from birth, speaking lies. Psalm 58:4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf viper that stops its ear; Psalm 58:5 who does not listen to the voice of charmers, who never charms with so much wisdom. Romans 5:8 But God commends his love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. This quote is from CH Spurgeon: I believe there will be more in heaven than in hell. If anyone asks me why I think so, I answer that Christ, in all things, must "have the pre-eminence," and I cannot conceive how He could have the pre-eminence if there were to be more in the areas of Satan than in Paradise.

This first breath is its spirit which comes from God so that the body lives and returns to God when it expires: Ecc 12:7 Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it . This tells me that body before mind is just a body and maybe, not sure, all those murdered unborn babies aren't living beings until that mind enters them! My conclusion: Spurgeon, you are wrong about babies for the wicked who go astray. from the maternal womb, remain lost, without ever entering into the salvation of the Lord! There are no evil babies or evil men or angels who have access to Heaven until the Blood of Jesus redeems them! Works Cited Ps. 58-5; Roma.5:8
