Why Not Question: Will all Children be raptured?

In the 'Left Behind' books and movies, all children were considered innocent in God's eyes and raptured. However, in the film 'Apocalypse', produced by the same film makers, there were still children on Earth after Christ had removed his bride.

Which presented image is correct?

The only verse that comes even remotely close to answering this questions is part of a section Paul presents on marriage between believer/believer and believer/unbeliever.

1 Corinthians 7:14 KJV - 'For the unbelieving husband is sanctified (made holy) by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified (made holy) by the husband: else were your children unclean (impure, foul); but now they are holy (blameless, consecrated, separate, set apart).'

One would speculate, given the above information, that young children from the marriages of believer/believer and believer/unbeliever, just might be raptured, whereas children from the union of two unbelievers might not.

Does it seem fair? No. But considering what Paul wrote, it would make more sense than God rapturing all children.
