My pastor, for over 50 years served a ministry to handicapped people, most with Down’s syndrome. I have seen with my own eyes that they are capable of coming to a saving faith in the Lord Jesus Christ

What happens, in your belief, to children who die before they can have the (Pauline) "saving faith?"

It can't be known with certainty because God does not tell us in certain terms. However, I am more than comfortable with assuming that they are saved because that would be consistent by implication with the God who is presented to us in scripture. I just can't declare it as fact.
