I got it

Like I said, I think He gives us enough to figure it out
yes like I said just because i don’t see the clear answer doesn’t mean it’s not there I only see what I see

but others often see things I hadn’t so I have no disagreement with your thinking in it

About noon the following day as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the roof to pray. He became hungry and wanted something to eat, and while the meal was being prepared, he fell into a trance. He saw heaven opened and something like a large sheet being let down to earth by its four corners. It contained all kinds of four-footed animals, as well as reptiles and birds.
(Acts 10:9-12)


all these animals literally descended from heaven -- meaning clearly, they were in heaven
who are they? specifically?
they are resurrected just as we are -- all living souls, every creature in which is the breath of God!

Well? Do animals get thrown into the lake of fire, or..?
Why do they die at all? Do they die the second death, and why/why not?
Do animals sin?



Please indicate how answers are justified through scripture, and thanks =]
only the ones in a Wuhan Market LOL

I hope there’s some cute cuddly animals in heaven. God created so many beautiful birds, I hope there’s beautiful birds in heaven also. But it’s up to Him! He probably has a lot surprises lined up for those who make it.

If we analyze scriptures which present a picture of our existence in Heaven, then if we would be happier/want reunification with our favorite pet...it will be granted. This is an opinion.

it's not about us.
it's about the fact that they are living souls, given the breath of life by God, and they do not have sin, however were subjected to death not according to their own will, but in hope of the revealing of the sons of God; the redemption of all creation through Christ.


does God bring souls without sin into life and existence for such a short time only in order to utterly destroy them?
by God's command, they were sacrificed in atonement for human sin -- if they thereby are made figures of Christ, and Christ is risen, will they not be risen with Him?

I do not see how an animal that was used for pagan sacrifices can go to heaven.
Perhaps you may understand if given a different situation. What about an innocent believer of Jesus Yeshua being taken captive and burned as a pagan sacrifice?

Does this make it easier to understand? All of nature adores the Maker of all that is.....
