1 | Are there animals in heaven? | Gen 2:7 | LovetoLaugh | 82762 | ||
My pastor said that there will be no animals in heaven. Is that true? I noticed in Acts 10:11 that when a sheet came down from heaven filled with animals....well, how can that happen if there are no animals in heaven? |

The event that you cite in Acts 10 was so obviously a trance that Scripture explicitly calls it that in Acts 10:10. It held an important message for Peter, but that message was NOT meant to inform Peter that heaven is full of animals! To extract from what so obviously is clearly labeled Peter's dream-like trance or vision the belief in the immortality of animals in heaven is quite a stretch. If we are going to believe that from our reading of this passage, we may as well also conclude from Acts 2:1 that the disciples owned a Honda. The evidence is certainly there, for Acts 2:1 clearly states that "they were all with one accord in one place." Do you know of any other car maker besides Honda that produces an Accord? So there you have it. Scriptural proof. The disciples had a Honda Accord with them there on that Day of Pentecost. But I'll grant you one thing. It is no greater a corruption of sound Bible doctrine to teach that animals are in heaven and the disciples drove an Accord on earth than to teach some of the things that are being taught today as the truth and upon which whole sects have been founded. Look to 2 Timothy 2:15 for the way to avoid false teaching. God put animals in their proper place in the scheme of His creation. (See Gen. 1:26). Let's be content to let them remain there. --Hank | ||||||

Hank that was beautiful, you came through again, where do you find this stuff. I thought it was bad when someone said that Isaiah had a horse named Isme. When I ask them where they got that idea they said that Isaiah said in the Bible, woe is me; I think you just topped it! CDBJ |
