Animal in Heaven?
by Marsha Borror.........................................
|
Animals in Heaven One of the great benefits of this utopian ecosystem will be that animals will not prey upon one another for food. We are told that "The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox" (Isaiah 11:6, 7). And further, "The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the Lord" (Isaiah 65:25). Obviously, this means quite literally that there'll be pets in heaven. In fact, every animal could potentially be a pet because none of them will be wild; they will not be afraid of us, nor us of them. God does everything perfectly, and in heaven, everyone will find complete love and happiness--including companionship with God's other creatures. People often wonder whether their pets and furry friends from earth will be with them in heaven. Some say this is impossible because animals don't have immortal souls, much less souls. However, this isn't a hindrance at all. Humans don't have immortal souls either; only God has unconditional immortality (1 Timothy 6:13--16). He will bless His people with immortality as a gift of His grace at the end of the age (2 Timothy 1:10). |
