Safe in the Arms of Jesus: God's Provision for the Death of Those Who Cannot Believe
Digital Logos Edition
Overview
Can I know for sure that my child is in heaven? Are guardian angels real? What will my child be like in heaven? Writing with a father's tenderness and the confident knowledge of a Bible scholar, Robert P. Lightner brings keen insight and gentle comfort to parents who grieve. This book explains God's provision and offers sympathy, solace, and strength for the journey of healing. It goes beyond mere words of consolation to the truth that brings peace to broken hearts. God does not abandon the tiny ones in the womb, and he has a plan for those too young or mentally unable to believe. A place has been made in heaven, safe in the arms of Jesus.
Praise for the Print Edition
…I recommend this book. It is very comforting. Those who believe that only elect babies who die will be with the Lord will likely be unimpressed with the arguments here. However, most everyone else will be.
—Robert N. Wilkin, Editor, Journal of the Grace Evangelical Society
