Answer 1

A common misperception...

Isa 11:6 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.
Isa 65:25 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.

Answer 2

The most elegant discussion of this is in "Orthodoxy" by G. K. Chesterton.

Here goes:

"So it is also, of course, with the contradictory charges of the anti-Christians about submission and slaughter. It is true that the Church told some men to fight and others not to fight; and it is true that those who fought were like thunderbolts and those who did not fight were like statues. All this simply means that the Church preferred to use its Supermen and to use its Tolstoyans. There must be some good in the life of battle, for so many good men have enjoyed being soldiers. There must be some good in the idea of non-resistance, for so many good men seem to enjoy being Quakers. All that the Church did (so far as that goes) was to prevent either of these good things from ousting the other. They existed side by side. The Tolstoyans, having all the scruples of monks, simply became monks. The Quakers became a club instead of becoming a sect. Monks said all that Tolstoy says; they poured out lucid lamentations about the cruelty of battles and the vanity of revenge. But the Tolstoyans are not quite right enough to run the whole world; and in the ages of faith they were not allowed to run it. The world did not lose the last charge of Sir James Douglas or the banner of Joan the Maid. And sometimes this pure gentleness and this pure fierceness met and justified their juncture; the paradox of all the prophets was fulfilled, and, in the soul of St. Louis, the lion lay down with the lamb. But remember that this text is too lightly interpreted. It is constantly assured, especially in our Tolstoyan tendencies, that when the lion lies down with the lamb the lion becomes lamb-like. But that is brutal annexation and imperialism on the part of the lamb. That is simply the lamb absorbing the lion instead of the lion eating the lamb. The real problem is -- Can the lion lie down with the lamb and still retain his royal ferocity? That is the problem the Church attempted; that is the miracle she achieved."

I hope this is what your Question is the large letters above.
The prophecy was told that in the future on earth after the creator does away with the wicked...That people whose personality are lion like will get along with people who have lamb- like personalities.(meek like people).
The literal fulfillment on the earth in the future here...
Yes the lion will lay with the lamb...Please read Isaiah 11 verse 1-9 but read the whole chapter.
This is not in heaven because those animals in the literal since will make lots of do do The earth our creator was made for man to live on forever and it will be soon. Lets hope we all can make it. May you have peace.

Answer 4

This scripture parallels Isaiah 11:1-10..

6) wolf and lamb...kid with leopard..8)child play upon the hole of the cobra..

9) They will not do any harm or cause any ruin in all my holy mountain, because the EARTH will certainly be filled with the knowledge of Jehovah as the waters are covering the very sea.

Before the flood of Noah's day, the animals were at peace with one another, and those conditions will return in Paradise.

Answer 5

In Heaven there will be no flesh, the Spirit will be loving and there will be no conflict. In this world the Lamb is food for the Lion in the next world it will not be so.

Answer 6

I don't know about lions and lambs, but there's a place in Thailand that allows tigers to lay down with pigs.

This is an allegory of course, but in the coming Kingdom it just might happen.

Wonder what He'll do with roaches?

Where do you see that WE will turn vegetarian? We will be the carnivores. (Although, to be fair, there is a prominent Jewish Rabbi from about 60 years ago who agrees with you.
