The wolf and the lamb will feed together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox, and dust will be the serpent's food. They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain," says the LORD.
Isaiah 65:25

YOU KNOW ANY OTHER PLACE IN BIBLE WHERE IT TALKS ABOUT ANIMALS IN HEAVEN ????


CAN YOU SAY ME IT ???????????
 
That verse has nothing to do with animals in heaven, as the animal references are metaphors, not literal references.

Only man was made "in God's image", therefore, humans will be the only ones in heaven.
 
Yes, God loves His animals. Isaiah 65:25 takes place in the eternity, and we see that there will be no eating of flesh, because there shall be no flesh. There will be no more of the things that are used by one animal to catch another, in the gathering of its prey. The serpent moves in the dust and hypnotizes its prey into subjection, and then devours it. There shall be no creature consuming another in God's Holy kingdom. This chapter flows right into Isaiah 66, with the same thought and time being continued.

Ecclesiastes 3:21;
"Who knows if the spirit of man rises upward and if the spirit of the animal goes down into the Earth"?
 
So what about the New Earth?

Then I saw "a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. Revelation 21:1 NIV

No sea = No fishing in heaven?.

Oh well, good excuse to quit my job, buy a boat and make the most of it then. Im going fishing. Its been 3 months since i got a line wet.
 
I know of very few who have visited and come back to tell us about it. Jesus is in heaven, but he visited the other place and preached there... so I am not certain.

But here's something to be certain about. Our Creator, our God is very Creative. And if there are no animals? There is better. But maybe there are animals? But I can't say, DOGmatically (wink) how to CATegorize them exactly if there are. But if there aren't? There is something better. We have custom made mansions under construction? Made for us. Jesus said if that was not the case, He would have told us. Hmmmmm.... let me fetch that one. It's pretty good, too good for this old mans' memory. One second... processing... fetching...

Here is the link to the many version page of John 14 (I was talking about John 14:2 and context - but it's worth a click; what isn't? (Sadly, there's too much these days that ain't worth a click. But then, you already knwo this.)

Be sure to check out the Question of Philip: Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.”

Will the fish need oceans in heaven and the birds need a sky? Will the bears need caves in heaven and the penguins need snow? Will the ant need a nest in heaven and the cow grass?
