The Hope of Salvation for Infants Who Die Without Being Baptized

The full text of this document by International Theological Commission can be read at CatholicCulture here.

Jeff Mirus, President of Trinity Communications, reminds us that
"The conclusion is the same as that expressed in the Catechism [on the Necessity of Baptism], but the ITC report provides a much more thorough theological exploration of the problem.

"I hasten to add that a study by the International Theological Commission is not a magisterial act. Nonetheless, it is well worth reading."
