For sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment, deceived me, and through the commandment put me to death. (Rom 7:9-11)
Babies and little children are alive, not dead. For each person this age would be different, based on their knowledge and faith:
Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn’t do it, sins. (James 4:17)
But the man who has doubts is condemned if he eats, because his eating is not from faith; and everything that does not come from faith is sin. (Rom 14:23)
Young children lack knowledge about right and wrong:
But before the boy knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right, the land of the two kings you dread will be laid waste. (Isa 7:16)
This mysterious age of accountability does exist and the Calvinistic doctrine of infant damnation for the non-elect is shown to be preposterous and out of harmony to the rest of Scriptures.... _end quote (He goes on but I end it there for brevity's sake).
