According to Christian fundamentalists, God will exterminate all those human beings who haven't jumped through all the right hoops (much time spent on knees while wearing glazed facial expression and saying thank you for all the diseases and earthquakes).
No matter that you may have lived what might be called a good Christian life, showing compassion, tolerance, kindness, charity, respect for the right to life of all sentient creatures human and otherwise, conscience and a sense of right and wrong. Failure to grovel gets you the chop!
Now we are told that God intends to wipe out not only all of the planet's human population, save for the favoured few, but also every other living creature, however innocent.
God, it seems, is going to show Adolf Hitler, Josef Stalin, Pol Pot, Mao tse Tung and the massed brigades of the "if it moves, kill it, if it doesn't, chop it down" persuasion just what
a poor job they've all done. Nice chap. His eldest lad, Lucifer, is clearly a chip off the old block.
If you thought that at the end of your life you were going to
meet God you'd never get a decent night's sleep would you?
Better to leave him (should that be Him?) in the category
where he properly belongs, with Santa Claus and the Tooth
Fairy. 'night all!

I could quote a bunch of scriptures here and go on and on, but this is very simple: the fact that God notices the fall of a sparrow suggests he cares about sparrows, and, by extension, all creatures of the earth--heck, he created them! So my sense is that animals and plants and rocks--everything--will have part in the resurrection and eternity. If he made all things for mankind's pleasure, and these things bring us pleasure, then they will be with us in eternity.
It has been said that you can tell a man's personality by how he treats children, the elderly, and animals; space prohibiting us from engaging in any detailed and complex philosophical arguments, I think that the scriptures show us plenty about how God treats, and will treat, all of these.
Go with your gut. Deduce what you know of the personality of God, listen to the Spirit, and the answer becomes obvious.

Animals will be a part of the New Earth..God is going to destroy this old one...there will be a new Heaven and a new Earth....I don't know about insects....I don't think they will be a part of the new one..at least I hope we won't have fire ants and mosquitoes...LOL
"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..."
"...They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious." (Isaiah_11:6-10)

Hi!
It says in the bible that human beings are 'so' special, that it is only 'us' that have a 'soul', that animals 'cannot' go to heaven or be 'judged' on the so called 'judgement day'.
It 'also' states in the bible, that you 'can' have 'anything' that you want in heaven!
So, what if you want to be surrounded by animals?
Does 'god' replicate 'synthetic' animals???
Armageddon, the time that is before the 'rapture' or 'judgement day', has been 'proven' to have been written long before the exodus, from the 'aftermath' of an Egyptian war!!
It has been re-written and mentioned in the bible numerous times, by people who 'did not' know its origins either.
In the bible, it has been put into a 'totally' different context, not been the aftermath of a long ago war, been turned into mans judgement times.
This complete change of context is to put fear into human beings, that if they don't do what the religion wants, you will be 'judged' as bad and burn in hell forever!!
Going to be with the 'creator', after death, is also a lot older, coming from quite a few ancient civilisations, then passed down and changed, by the religions of today!
If people still want to believe in 'judgement day', or the belief in life after death, meeting with the creator, when these origins are known, when it 'is' a 'false' understanding, they still 'blindly' believe? .....
then, more fool them!!!

Nothing! During the Tribulation, many in the "Animal Kingdom" will be destroyed. Those remaining at the end of the Millennium will be destroyed by God when He destroys the Earth & Creates a New Earth. John

you mean what happened? they were all judged above christians... when we hear of judgment day we think of christian interpretation... have you ever been able to convince a christian of the truth even if the evidence was indisputable... well truth of judgment day and Armageddon is the same... Mother Nature judged the only thing to be called sin is religion and that christianity and catholicim was EVIL... that is why to this day there is no religion in her name.. and religions are attributed to male images of god... for she would kill those sinning against her with a religion in her name. and the end to those damaging the world through male dominated religions will also fall.

God created the animals before He created man, else, man would have taken credit for their creation. Ha. When God created each creature, "God saw that it was GOOD"; Gen 1. The animals were in the garden with man before man's fall, they are here with us during our fall, so, why not believe they will be with us when we go to be eternally with the creator? Remember, the word says the WHOLE creation moans desiring to be changed.

2 Peter 3:11-13
11Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
