Will We Know Our Pets In Heaven

Animals that had slept on our beds will sometimes continue to do that so we might be reading or watching tv and we will distinctly feel the animal jump up onto the bed and then see and feel the little paw indentations as the animal walks to its sleeping place where we will see and feel the greater indentation as the animal curls to sleep beside our feet.

Will we know our pets in heaven. The pets that we had to say goodbye to are alive in heaven right now in their spiritual bodies and we will see them again if we accept jesus as our savior. Your pet is not gone forever. I know how hard it is to lose a pet. Many christians believe that god will allow our pets to cross over into heaven after they die so they can be with us for all of eternity.

During a recent public appearance pope francis comforted a boy whose dog had just died saying one day we will see our animals again in eternity. All agreed that the answer to this question lies in how one interprets the scriptures. We won t know until we get there whether or not our animals will be with us in heaven but we can be assured that whether they are or not we aren t going to feel any lack or longing.

Animals are creations of god and therefore we should take care of them as best we can. Heaven is better than we know. When our pets greet us in heaven they are the same ones that shared their love with us not our imagination of them. The bible does not give a definitive answer to the question of whether we will see our pets in heaven but it does say with god all things are possible matthew 19 26 niv rather than speculate about things that are at present unknowable we can turn our thoughts toward thanking god for the tremendous gift of joy that our furry friends bring to us now.

However just as many other christians do not believe that any of our pets will be crossing over to be with us. It is pointless to ponder the question of whether your pet goes to heaven if you yourself are not there. That we can t tell the difference between our pets and spiritual image of our pets sounds illusory and negates the concept of a loving god. The loving god need not resort to trickery.

Area if they believe we will see our pets in heaven.
