There Will Be No Carnivores in The Afterlife
We have seen in Will Believers Eat Meat in Heaven that Our Creator made both man and animals as plant-eaters.
The Holy Bible is clear that there was No Death Before Mankind Sinned, and there will be No Death in Heaven.
That rules out consuming animal flesh for all creatures who are taken to Glory.
The dispensation of Grace in which we live, is unique in that Father God has now endorsed the consumption of all animal flesh. As the Apostle Peter discovered after he understood the vision God had given him. (See Acts Ch. 10)
There’s No Flesh on Heaven’s Menu
But flesh-eating is not the perfect state for His creatures. We have to wait until we are in Glory to discover what our food will be like.
Scripture tells us that lions will eat straw like bullocks, and serpents will eat dust. Isaiah 65:25 KJV;
The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent’s meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD.
If food is your idol, that news will be grievous, but seek Father, and you’ll soon comprehend, that what He has in store, is going to be far more glorious than any earthly meal.
“LORD, How Did You Do It?”
As a zoologist and veterinarian, I’ve longed to know the details of how plant-eating canids, felids, ursids etc. were transformed into meat-tearing, bone-crunching Carnivores.
I’m certain it happened instantly, simply with a word from God, that’s generally how He works, but it’s a source of great amazement to me, because; not only does their morphology have to change, but also their; dentition, physiology, and behaviour.
All Carnivore “kinds” will become plant-eaters in Heaven, like every other creature there. Because as we’ve seen there’s No Death in Heaven, so no flesh eating.
That means God has to transform bears, dogs, lions, killer-whales, and cats etc. from flesh-eating, back to being vegetarian.
That won’t be a problem for Him, He’ll just speak it, and it will be so.
But what a wonder to study for eternity!
What About My Pets?
These Bible facts may prompt you to ask if our pet dogs and cats ought to be fed a vegetarian diet now, since that is God’s ideal.
The answer is a definite “No!”
Primarily because our pets have to live in this accursed world in the physical form they have been condemned to bear since Adam sinned, and brought a curse upon us all.
Good News For Animal Lovers
But take heart animal-lovers, Our Creator loves and cares for them far more than we do.
Redemption Includes All Creation
When Christ died for the sins of the world, that included the sin that also condemned brute beasts. He has paid the redemption price for the whole of Creation, so there can be a new Earth when Christ returns. Rom. 8:18-22 KJV;
For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
I believe that passage is not merely speaking of Jews and Gentiles, but all of God’s Creation, including animals and plants.
It’s my view that brute beasts are under God’s Grace, like babes before they reach the age of accountability.
So that when a beast dies, it’s spirit is preserved by God and stored somewhere waiting to be taken to the new Heaven and New Earth.
Love Your Pets: Don’t Poison Them!
The second reason it is very unwise to feed pet dogs and cats anything other than what God has designed them to eat in this dispensation, is because they will suffer physically and die prematurely if fed commercial junk pet food.
If you really love your pets, feed them raw whole animal carcasses, and flee from any veterinarian who endorses processed pet food, or the use of mRNA vaccines and any gene therapy. (Pfizer et al. are already promoting the use of mRNA injections in pets, and gene-therapy in livestock. Do NOT fall for the scam.)
Your pets will grow strong and avoid the plague of ailments that manufactured pet-food companies have created for veterinarians to treat.

If this all comes as a shock to you, then you need to be Born of God by responding to His Good News, and come through the door: The LORD Jesus Christ,
What Good News?
The good news that God has come down from Heaven and shown Himself to the world in Jesus Christ, His Only Begotten Son, who is the image of His Father
Why?
So that you can know what real God is like, that He’s gentle, loving, kind, and merciful to the lost.
So what?
So believe on The LORD Jesus Christ, and receive God’s mercy instead of judgment.
The good news that God wants you as His friend, His child, and His partner evermore.
Why?
Because God created you, and wants you to know Him and His perfect love for you.
So what?
So you can come into His loving Arms now by trusting simply in what Christ has accomplished for you at Calvary, not through anything you have done.
The good news that Jesus took all your sin on Himself and bore God’s judgment in your place.
Why?
So that God can legally acquit you of all guilt on account of Jesus’ name.
So what?
So repent of unbelief in The LORD Jesus Christ and that all your sin was judged in Him.
The good news that Christ arose alive on the third day.
Why?
To prove that He was without sin of His own, and that the sins of the world have been judged in Him.
So what?
So repent and believe on Him, and the Living Christ will come into your heart now, and give you His eternal life.
The good news that Jesus took your sickness and disease on Himself at the Cross.
Why?
So that you don’t have to be sick or diseased, but can live and walk in His divine health evermore.
So what?
So believe Christ bore your pains, you illness, and be healed by Believing in Him as your Saviour-Healer.
