If anyone, born or unborn is not elect, then they are reprobate and thus will be condemned to eternal damnation. There are no "innocent" human beings. ALL are conceived in sin and under the wrath of God. (cf. Psa 51:5; 58:1-3; Job 15:14; Is 48:8; Rom 3:10; 5:12, 18; 9:11-13; Eph 2:3) Since ALL die, all are therefore sinners. There is no "age of accountability" to be found in all of Scripture.

That question was already answered which in summary is: All elect infants dying in the womb are saved by the secret work of the Holy Spirit Who unites them to Christ and thus are immediately brought into His presence. ALL non-elect infants dying in the womb are immediately sent to Hell to await the final judgment where they will be cast into the Lake of Fire with all the wicked. God's election is both sovereign and unconditional, i.e., there is NOTHING in regard to any individual which would commend itself to God. Neither blood, heritage, race, color, creed, et al, including being conceived to a believer (covenant family) is the basis either in whole or part was considered when God chose for Himself a remnant to be saved in Christ.

In His grace,
