Do Animals Go To Heaven?
Comments by Cheryl - 27 Sep 2008

Dear Frank and Mary,

Thank you for taking the time to respond.

Romans 8:18-25 and Colossians 1:19-20 in my opinion are the 2 most powerful Scriptures in the Bible pertaining to creation. I can�t believe that the word ALL of creation doesn�t mean just that.

Why are so many people adamant, or so it seems, to animals sharing and being blessed by our Lord to have an eternal life. I just don�t understand.

I have had people say that animals don�t go to heaven because they were not made in the image of God. I don�t think that the Bible states or says anything about Angels being made in the image of God and yet they have an eternal existence. So why not our beloved pets and the animals that inhabit this earth? I just don�t understand why this is such an argument among Christians.

Cheryl
