Question

Help answer this question below.

The Bible says that "all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God" and that if you do not personally ask Christ's forgiveness you will go to hell. Since babies can't ask forgiveness and "all have sinned" they are all in hell, right?

    Is either purgatory or a fiery hell taught anywhere in the Bible? Today, many scholars in Christendom would answer no. The New Catholic Encyclopedia states: “In the final analysis, the Catholic doctrine on purgatory is based on tradition, not Sacred Scripture.” Regarding hell, A Dictionary of Christian Theology comments: “In the N[ew] T[estament] we do not find hell fire to be a part of the primitive preaching.”
