Personally, I'm a little sceptical about animals 'going to heaven', but am open to being convinced.<br /><br />A couple of thoughts....You write that it is the 'soul' that goes to heaven, but I think this is more the influence of Greek thought, which pictures the soul almost as if it is trapped by the sinful body and then released at death. Paul in 1 Cor. 15 talks about the resurrection body, which implies something more than just a disembodied 'soul'.<br /><br />Also, there's the new earth to consider as well. Is heaven our final destination, or is the recreated and redeemed new earth? If creation is to be part of the new earth then there's every possibility that animals will be part of the new earth.<br /><br />Just a couple of thoughts.<br />JennyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
