Q
Will babies who have been aborted go directly to the Lord as members of the Church or will they be part of another population? I imagine they would be the Church, but I’d appreciate your clarification.
A
All aborted babies belong to the Lord and have eternal life. We know this because life begins at conception (Psalm 139:13-14) and all children below the age of accountability have eternal life (Romans 7:9).
We also know that during the Church age, the spirits of those who belong to the Lord go directly to be with Him upon death (2 Cor. 5:6-8). There they await the resurrection that will accompany the rapture. Therefore I think we can assume that babies who are aborted during the Church Age will be part of the Church.
