We are not blamed for the sin of Adam and Eve for that is their sin, and not our sin, and their sin does not come upon us.
But when they ate off the tree they then had a choice between good and evil, so all their offspring has a choice when they are born, so they are born not knowing God so they will do wrong before they do right and follow God.
So all have sinned and come short of the glory of God, did the act of sin, not born with it.
So we are born innocent with no sin on our record until the age of accountability when we know correctly the difference between good and evil.
Which the angels always behold the face of the Father for the little ones, for the children are protected spiritually by angels during the time they are innocent.
Which angels minister to those who shall inherit eternal life.

Hi Jay,
First, God is good. Put your trust in Him, and don't worry. Second, God is righteous; will not the Judge of all the earth do right? (Genesis 18:25) Third, in my view, it's far more likely that your kids will live to a ripe old age and meet Jesus in person after their deaths than be raptured (however, that's an interpretation).
Pray for them. Teach them the truth. Model the character of Christ. That's your part. God will do His.

God did not hold anyone under the age of twenty accountable when the Israelites were entering the Promised Land which tells us something about God's character. He is tender-hearted and full of mercy. We please Him by trusting Him; so I am trusting Him with the future of my children; hope this helps x

We must be very sober when considering 1st Corinthians 7:24. The word "saved" is not used. "Sanctified" and "made holy" are used. That is, because of the STANDING of the ONE believing parent, the same STANDING is attributed to the rest of the family. Noah believed and God set in motion a means for him, not to avoid the Lake of Fire, but to avoid the flood - the universal judgement. His family was allowed to join him in the Ark. But we see later that one of the sons was far from good. But Ham, based on his FATHER'S standing was granted salvation, not from the Lake of Fire, but from the flood.
Again, we have the case of Lot. God told Abraham to leave his "kinsmen". Abraham was not 100% obedient and took Lot with him. Later he paid for this when they had a dispute about grazing rights. But Lot was RELATED to Abraham, so God approaches Abraham and reveals His plan for the Sodomites of the Jordan Valley. Abraham intercedes, and Lot, though far from perfect, is granted escape from Sodom. So is his wife and daughters. But we see from their actions afterwards that they themselves are far from holy. God grants mercy because of ASSOCIATION.
1st Cotinthians 7:24 does not grant automatic salvation and eternal life. But it might grant salvation from the Great Tribulation.
