Get Some Tissues...

This video is so touching, definitely worth your time to watch. It's so tragic to think that many people would have ended the life of a precious little one like this boy, Eliot.

According to Calvinist theology one would not know if this infant was one of the elect or not; am I reading Calvin correctly?

I would say that (based on my belief in covenant theology), an infant of a believer would go to heaven. Other babies, I would say that it's certainly not outside of the character of God to impute righteousness to a baby, but since we are conceived in iniquity, even a baby isn't *deserving*--he is not as holy as God. Thankfully, the Lord is perfectly just and everything He does is right! Scripture does not directly speak to the issue of eternity for infants.
