The contention that this limbo theory stemmed from the idea of baptism is evidenced by the fact of the Augustine Letters (Epistulae 157) where Augustine, in disproving Pelagius' theory that infants can be saved without Baptism, said that who die without Baptism are consigned to hell. The Church through the Council of Carthage of 418 favored Augustine's view and stated that there is no “intermediate or other happy dwelling place for children who have left this life without Baptism, without which they cannot enter the kingdom of heaven, that is, eternal life".
