Will We See Our Pets In Heaven Lds
Let s take a closer look.
Will we see our pets in heaven lds. According to all these comments and scriptures we know that animals have souls and will be resurrected and be found in heaven but we don t really know which level of heaven they will be in after the resurrection. The prophets past and present have said much that is relevant on this subject. 1 25 since the creation of the earth man has been given dominion over the animals. When animals were placed upon the earth our heavenly father said that it was good.
However just as many other christians do not believe that any of our pets will be crossing over to be with us. We are told that they are full of light and knowledge and experience a level of celestial happiness or eternal felicity d c 77 3 4. It would certainly be more popular among animal lovers to say that animals have eternal souls. Animals do not have eternal souls.
That doesn t mean we won t see our pets in heaven. Evidently all living things pass through this pattern of being first created as spirits then receiving mortal bodies and finally being resurrected to immortal bodies see spirit in the lds bible dictionary. The treatment of animals by man has ranged from worship to cruelty. But as far as animals being resurrected and going to heaven.
Let s get the bad news out of the way first. 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. Not only will animals be resurrected in heaven but this reveals that animals will be intelligent enough to enjoy it. We are told that a righteous man regardeth the life of his beast proverbs 12 10 as reflected in the law of moses which instructed the israelites to avoid unduly straining or muzzling their animals deuteronomy 22 10 25 4.
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.
