Wouldn't that depend on your view? If you believe at conception, a child has a spirit and a body, and that child dies in the womb, that child is with the Lord for all eternity. That's what I currently believe.
If, on the other hand, a person does not believe at "conception" a baby is not really a created person because they've yet to take their first breath, I suppose that person would have to believe the present and future condition is irrelevant.
What do you believe, brother Tim? And why?
