Animals are allowed in Heaven. What makes you think they aren`t? It wouldn`t be Heaven without Animals. God loves animals..

Peace & God bless from Texas.. <><

From what I've read in the Bible, there WILL be animals in heaven.

I don't understand why you would ask this kind of question, except to mock and ridicule the beliefs of Christians. How sad for you. If I misunderstood your question, I do apologize, but if your question, as worded, truly depicts what you're really saying, then I pity you for being such a scoffer, mocker and critic over people you don't agree with. Is that just you're way of justifying your anger towards God, by trying to make believes look or sound bad?

Animals will be in Heaven. There are verses to prove it...Isaiah 11:6

New American Standard Bible (©1995)

And the wolf will dwell with the lamb, And the leopard will lie down with the young goat, And the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; And a little boy will lead them.

How do you know animals aren't allowed in Heaven? Unless you've been there and returned, or you are God (both of which are "no"), you can't say if animals are in heaven or not.

I believe our family pets will have a special place in heaven

GENESIS 9: 14-17

When I gather the clouds over the earth and the bow appears in the clouds, I shall recall the covenant between myself and you and every living creature, in a word all living things, and never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all living things. When the bow is in the clouds I shall see it and call to mind the eternal covenant between God and every living creature on earth, that is, all living things. `That' God told Noah, `is the sign of the covenant I have established between myself and all living things on earth.'

ISAIAH 11:6-9

And 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. And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice's den. They shall not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain, for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.

JOB 12:7-10

You have only to ask the cattle, for them to instruct you, and the birds of the sky, for them to inform you. The creeping things of earth will give you lessons, and the fish of the sea provide you an explanation: there is not one such creature but will know that the hand of God has arranged things like this! In his hand is the soul of every living thing and the breath of every human being!

PSALM 50:9-11

I have no need of a bull from your stall or of goats from your pens, for every animal of the forest is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills. I know every bird in the mountains, and the creatures of the field are mine.

PSALMS 50:10-11

For all forest creatures are mine already, the animals on the mountains in their thousands. I know every bird in the air, whatever moves in the fields is mine.

PSALM 136:25

...And who gives food to every creature. His love endures forever.

PROVERBS 12:10

A righteous man cares for the needs of his animal

ECCLESIASTES 3:19-21

Man's fate is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath, man has no advantage over the animal. Everything is meaningless. All go to the same place; all come from dust and to dust all return. Who knows if the spirit of man rises upward and if the spirit of the animal goes down into the earth?


LUKE 12:6

Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? And not one of them is forgotten before god.

Chad,

It doesn't really matter if my dog is in heaven with me. He was for me to enjoy here.

We are going to be to busy with a lot more important things there rather then walking the dog, feed him, cleaning up his poop, etc. OR maybe these 'wishful thinkers' think their pets are getting glorified bodies!? That is funny but a little borderline sacrilegious.

they are not allowed in heaven because they do not have the same souls we have if one animal kills another animal is it going to be a sin and go to hell? no but if we do we pay with our souls.

christians don't go to heaven either. according to christian beliefs, there is going to be a new heaven and a new earth. presumably, the new earth will have many similarities to the old earth, but God will be there with us and we will be resurrected with new, perfect bodies. why wouldn't there be animals there?

There are much better things there. Right now we just thank God for the blessing of them here on earth.

1 Cor 2:9 "...EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD, AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN, ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM."

Religion is built upon discrimination. "Believe as I do or you will not go to heaven". You could conceivably expand the question to "xtians, doesnt it make you the least bit sad to have non-xtians as friends?" I'm sorry, but think about it. Most religious people believe that all "other" people aren't going to heaven. So if everyone else is going to hell, then who actually is going to heaven?
