What does the Bible say about God saving little children?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible suggests that God graciously saves little children, particularly those who die in infancy.

The Bible indicates that God shows mercy to little children, as seen in Matthew 19:13-15, where Jesus invites children to come to Him. The belief in the salvation of infants who die stems from the understanding of God's character, which is merciful and compassionate. As David expresses in 2 Samuel 12:22-23, he expects to see his dead infant son in the afterlife, showing confidence in God's mercy. Furthermore, in Jonah 4:11, God demonstrates His concern for those who cannot discern between right and wrong, which likely includes young children. Thus, the view is that many infants who die go to be with the Lord due to His sovereign grace.
