God’s Compliment: He said children were the greatest in His Kingdom (Matthew 18:4).
God’s Blessing: Jesus blessed the little children and said the Kingdom of God belongs to them (Mark 9:13–16). Jesus typically didn’t bless those destined to Hell or promise them the Kingdom, unless He meant it.
David’s Assurance: David knew that he would be in heaven forever after death (Psalm 23:6). He also had the assurance that his baby (that had died) would be there as well, where they would be reunited. “…I will go to him, but he will not return to me (2 Samuel 12:22–23).”
God’s Presence: I do not believe in a “soul sleep.” When babies, young children, and those with unique needs die; they are with the Lord immediately (2 Corinthians 5:8, Luke 23:43).
“God is not silent on this topic,” Pruitt said. “Scripture speaks.”
Pruitt encouraged his social media followers that because of the Bible, they can confidently know young children who have died are residing in heaven today.
“You can know with absolute confidence that you did not ‘lose’ your baby, child, or loved one with unique needs,” Pruitt said. “You didn’t lose them, because you know exactly where they are. They are perfectly and fully alive with Jesus.”
