Are pets REALLY allowed in heaven?

Question

Otherwise I am going to refuse to go.............................

My dear doggie most DEFINITELY had a soul!

Answer 1

If they aren't- it wouldn't be heaven would it??? :)

Answer 2

Only God knows for sure ; however He did leave us some evidence of all living things having souls . Animals do not have a " Sin Nature " , so I think they will be in heaven , not because they got saved , but because of what is stated in in the following verses Job 12 : 9 - 10 .... Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the Lord hath wrought this .. In whose hand is the "soul of every living thing ", and the breath of all mankind !!!! So , if animals have a soul , and souls do not die , heaven is available .

Answer 3

The Bible never mentions pets in Heaven, though it does say that there will be animals there. It says that the lion will lay down with the lamb, the way it was back in Eden. Whether these animals are going to be new creations, or animals that are brought back, the Bible doesn't say. In my opinion, it's in the nature of God, to bring back a loved pet I know when I get to Heaven, I'd be thrilled to see the dog I had as a child running towards me.

Answer 4

I think this depends on your idea of Heaven, your interpretation and/or belief in the Bible and/or Heaven... but the important thing to think of here, is how we treat our animals here on Earth. If they arean't going to Heaven, and this is all they will get to experience, then isn't it all the more cruel to abuse an innocent animal. But, if they do go to Heaven, then could you be perfectly at peace in Heaven knowing that you abused the animal on Earth, but now looking at it in Heaven, whether it has forgiven you or not?

Personally I believe that God created animals because he already knew what they were, and the the probability of them being in Heaven is high, but they won't be grazing in pastures or sitting on laps, they too will be worshiping.

By the way... I'm very liberal, so don't get the idea that I'm of the judgmental Christian types... I simply believe... I love every body no matter what their background is.

Best wishes, and Good Luck!

Answer 6

Sorry, but animals do not go to heaven.

Men and Woman see in animals part of God’s generous provision for human welfare. Animals have served man as burden bearers, as sources of food and clothing, as sanitation agents, and as helpers in the vital activities of plowing and harvesting. Their variety of form and color has delighted his eye; their habits and instincts have been and still are an extensive field for inquiry into the marvels of God’s creative work. Though animals die in the same manner as man, they do not share his hope of a resurrection.

Animals were created with a limited life span, humans had the prospect of living on earth forever. ( Psalm 37:29) Jesus Christ said that to enjoy “everlasting life,” we must exercise faith and take in knowledge of God, things that animals are incapable of doing. (John 17:3)

God created animals for the sake of humans. Animals can help them do their work and can serve as their companions or pets. They also serve to magnify God’s love and wisdom.

The Creator gave life to both humans and animals. But for how long were they to continue to live? Scientists report that humans seem to have the potential of endless life, so that investigators are perplexed as to why man dies. The Bible gives the reason. It says that the Creator gave the first humans the opportunity of living forever. Death came only because they rebelled. (Gen. 2:17; 3:17-19) What, though, of animals? They are not capable of conscious rebellion against God; yet they live only for a length of time and then die. Hence, it is clear that the Creator never purposed that individual animals live forever. For them death was natural.

Answer 7

I sure hope so. God created a place on this earth for all living creatures, so I'm pretty sure he created a place for all creatures when they die. I've heard about a person who died, but was brought back to life, and he said when he got to heaven his dog was there to great him. I believe.

Answer 8

I think there will be animals in heaven, but because animals are unlike humans and have no souls, i think our pets here on earth wont be there, just in our hearts

Answer 9

I believe that pets are in heaven, probably against educated peoples ideas - but these are my beliefs.
NO ONE KNOWS - SO WHY IRRITATE PEOPLE THAT LOVE ANIMALS THAT ARE REALLY PART OF THEIR FAMILY????
GOD made everything - humans can't discriminate against creatures of GOD, who the hell are we?

Answer 10

Yes

Answer 11

yes i believe they are.otherwise why would GOD have told NOAH to bring the animals into the ark?he brought them in two by two male and female so they could be fruitful and multiply and seven of the clean animals each type for food.so of course GOD loves animals,he made them and he wants us to be kind to animals.
