We know that King David committed adultery with Bathsheba and she got pregnant by him, after the baby boy was born, he had to pay for his father's sin by his death. Do you think if a man or woman made a baby before they get married, do you think they will lose their illegitimate 'good' child at the great day of Jehovah and one of their or both parents survive the great day of Jehovah? Do you think it might be a possibility of that happening to at least one of them when the Big A arrives?

I think hypothetically that if the tooth fairy played Santa at chess, the tooth fairy would win.
Since the whole premise is based in fantasy, it's impossible to test.

The only part that interests me in this thread is that David hooked up with an African sistah

No way, the illegitimate baby will be fed to the flying spaghetti monster.

No, to take the question seriously. King David was under the Mosaic law and not only committed adultery with Bathsheba he also arranged the murder of her husband. Under the terms of the law future generations would bear responsibility for the sins of their fathers. The loss of the baby whether by Gods hand or not, reinforced the seriousness of what David had done.
When Jesus came to Earth he put an end to the Mosaic law. Christians would not be stoned to death for adultery or fornication. So it is unlikely that there would be mass extermination of illegitimate children.
The organisation states that unbaptised children are more likely to survive if they have faithful parents regardless of when they were conceived.
This being said the organisation also states that only faithful witnesses will survive the big A. Everyone else regardless of sex, age or religon will be bird food. (Jehovah ultimately decides but that it how it is). This will mean that all children of non witness are at risk. Unbaptised children of witnesses will not be protected by their parents if they are deemed to have been old enough to make their own dedication but have failed to do so.
Remember this is what they say not what will happen. If we are disgusted by the thought of child murder then if a loving god exists wouldn't he also be disgusted?

As a member of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, I take exception to the fact that you say I am not being serious. If you don't take me seriously you can pick the kids up from school today.

David's sin wasn't simply adultery. He tried to cover up his adultery by orchestrating the death of Bath-sheba's husband in battle, and then taking Bath-sheba as his wife. Not that even these actions justify the killing of an infant.

To say, even insinuate, that God would take the life of an innocent child to pay for the sins of the father, shows how much the scribes of the OT had fallen away from God.
