I am still grieving on the loss of by beloved cat Molly. I believe that she was a special gift to me and that I will be reunited with her in heaven. This week, I’ve been rummaging through various passages, scriptures and reading interpretations of various religious scholars trying to find proof that we will be reunited with our pets in heaven. I find that those who take every single word of the bible literally believe that animals are not on the same plane as humans and do not have a soul. I totally disagree and that’s the reason why I feel that beliefs of many evangelicals that do not dig any deeper than what’s written on a page of the bible and take every single word literally are not giving God enough credit. Many passages of the bible topics contradict each other. Some religious leaders take one passage and focus only on that rather than look at all passages relating to that topic. There are more passages that indicate that our pets will share paradise with us than those that say the opposite.

Here is may take on this subject. God had created every living creature on earth. He indicates time and time again that if we believe, we will have eternal life. Our beloved pets complete us and yes they do have souls. Why would God create a place for us that is not complete? Why would the animals be prevented from entering paradise? So my vision of the afterlife includes every creature that we have on earth. Our pets are bonded to us so therefore they will be re-united to us when we enter Heaven.

I hope this comforts those who are feeling as I do now.

Here’s proof:

And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.'”

LUKE 3:6

“All flesh shall see the salvation of God.”

LUKE 3:6

“Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.”

ACTS 3:21

“Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your judgments are like the great deep; you save humans and animals alike, O LORD.”

PSALM 36:6

“And He that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And He said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.”

REV. 21:5

“And to every animal of the earth, and to every fowl of the heavens, and to everything that creepeth on the earth, in which is a living soul, every green herb for food. And it was so.”

GENESIS 1:30

“I said in my heart, “Concerning the condition of the sons of men, God tests them, that they may see that they themselves are like animals”.”

ECCLESIASTES 3:18

“But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish of the sea inform you. Which of all these does not know that the hand of the LORD has done this? In his hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind.”

Job 12:7-10

“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.”

ECCLESIASTES 3:19-20

“And every creature which is in heaven, and on earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying. Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.”

Revelation 5:13 KJV

“On that day “Holy to the Lord” will be inscribed on the bells of the horses…”

Zech. 14:20

“I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. Is. 11: 6-8 The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, and the calf and the lion and the yearling together; and a little child will lead them. The cow will feed with the bear, their young will lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox. The infant will play near the hole of the cobra, and the young child put his hand into the viper’s nest. {We believe this refers to the millennium, but could also refer to the new heavens and new earth.”

Rev. 19:11

“Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.”

Romans 8:21-22

“God loves all His creation and has made plans for all His children and the lesser creatures to enjoy His eternal Kingdom.”

Psalm 145:-9-10,13,15-21
