When God looks upon the heart of man from Heaven...He sees two types of man.
One man is a believer in Christ the other man is an unbeliever. A believer is a man who trusts in the death of Christ (alone) for the forgiveness of sins (accepts Christ). The unbeliever (rejects Christ) and has no forgiveness for his sins. God knows those who belong to Him.
2 Tim 2:19...The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
God’s forgiveness for sin saves the human soul from Hell and damnation. God’s forgiveness for sin also allows the heart of man to be clean and thus provides man with the power to do right. A believer is justified by God's Grace. A believer in Christ “minds” or “obeys’ the Spirit of God. Obedience to God 24-7 is the desire of a Christian.. Forgiveness allows the power of God's Grace (in Salvation) to change the moral make-up of a believer in Christ.
Titus 2:11-12...For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
Here's what God's Word says about the unbeliever...
Rev 21:8...But the fearful, and "unbelieving", and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Jesus said more about Hell than He did Heaven...
As for children and those who do not know...
Rom 5:13 says...sin is not imputed when there is no law.
