Jesus died for the everyone past, present, and future. By God's
power everybody will be given an equal chance to cultivate a
righteous character and do good deeds. Thus not all to be born will
be sinners denied entry to heaven. Some will repent and be
saved.
However Jesus has adviced that it is better not to marry and have
children. As near the end there will be a time of great trouble and
testing for true followers of God. If your child chooses to follow
the path of sin, will he become a stumbling block to you? - that is
the question.
