Of course any person, from anywhere would be more important than any animal, any place. To save an animal in place of a soul for whom Jesus died, would be contrary to the whole plan of salvation. I just think that, in addition to mansions, and golden doorknobs and streets of golden glass,, that having our pets there also might be an added bonus. I am still trying to find the name of the book written by Steve Wohlberg. If I find it I will post it. 'summertime'

PS I still have hopes that I will have my little dogs, (or at least replicas of them) in heaven. I will just have to talk to Jesus about that.

I think the title is something like: Will Our Pets be in Heaven. I have the book and have read it and he does give good sound reasoning that animals will be with us, not just as given in the Bible, such as the lion will lie with the lamb, but even our pets.

Will have to get the book down from my shelf and share it.

Having just lost my kitty less than a month ago the thoughts of having him with me on the new earth was upper most in my heart. I cannot see if the lions and lambs are going to be there why not our pets.

The question is will God restore the animals that lived on this earth or will He create new ones? If creation waits for the redemption of man, then I would believe that they would be restored once man has been restored with their bodies and on the new earth.

We lost our four precious cats over the years; Princess, the mother of three kittens named Prince (all white like his mother), Silver, and Tiger.

We miss them dearly, and would love to see them and have them with us for all eternity.


In His Love, Mercy & Grace,

Well, we know for sure that there will be animals in heaven.

Quote:

Wolves and lambs will eat together in peace. Lions will eat hay like oxen, and a snake on the ground will not hurt anyone. They will not hurt or destroy each other on all my holy mountain," says the Lord.
Isaiah 65:25 NCV




Although it is true that Jesus did not die to save our pets, there is a promise in the Bible that could give us some hope for them to be there.

Quote:

But as it is written in the Scriptures: "No one has ever seen this, and no one has ever heard about it. No one has ever imagined what God has prepared for those who love him."
1 Corinthians 2:9 NCV




I would not be surprised if the was a little mansion for my former dog in heaven, but I doubt I would be disappointed if there was not either.

As to the discussion of the former things, perhaps this will help…

Quote:

He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death, sadness, crying, or pain, because all the old ways are gone.
Revelation 21:4 NCV




The former things are the old ways of the world. There will be no more death, theft, cheating, lies, covetousness, hate, anger, lust, or pain – in other words, the old way of the world will be gone; that does not mean that everything that was in the world will be gone (our relationships, our love of God, and so forth).


Oh Happy Day!

But when you get to eternity you won't remember you had them.

In light of what I just posted, I would not be so sure about that.

We have had a great Friend, Buddy, for the past 11 years. He was born in BC and when we lived there, we got him. What a personality! one of the most, if not the most, amazing cat I have ever seen. Buddy has always been a big and active cat (just around 20 pounds) This is the hardest few days that I have ever had, it is hard to look at the calendar because on Monday we will have him euthanized. Buddy developed diabetes about 6-9 months ago and we have been faithfully injecting him morning and night, but alas he is not living a quality life. buddy exists and that is about all. he goes from his water dish to his food dish to his catbox. as for if the lord will raise our pets or recreate them in the new earth, THAT IS UP TO HIM! All we can do is ASSUME and put in our 2 cents worth. My reason for posting this message is not to be confrontational but rather to post this as a memorial of my pet cat BUDDY. We have a wonderful dog Sammy, a cat Patches and at my parents house a cat Kiki. these pets have been amazing for our family, our dog actually saved my mothers life! but that is another story. I am amazed that some people, even a Pastor, have told me that pets are not advised to have because they are an extra expense! imagine that, eh!?
thank you for this forum and for allowing this rambling post.
Buddy Richards, 1995-2007. faithful cat, faithful friend.

Dan, yeah, my prayers are with you. I'm sorry. In the following passage, the phrase "the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God" could be interpreted to mean animals, including our pets, will be resurrected with us.

Romans
8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time [are] not worthy [to be compared] with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
8:19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
8:20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected [the same] in hope,
8:21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

BBD my heart goes out to you. Been there done that and it never gets easy. And you may be interested to know that it's not easy on the vet or the nurses either. My wife works at an animal clinic and tears up telling me of pets they have to euthanise. Those animals become part of our lives, our families, indeed they are family. I wish you all the comfort that only He can give.
