    The LORD Jesus Christ Has Redeemed Creation

    Of course there will be animals in Heaven; if read in the Holy Ghost, the Bible tells us so all the way through.

    When God’s Precious Blood was shed at Calvary, and His sinless Body pierced, it was to redeem the whole of God’s Creation: Not just those who believe in Him.

    Do you imagine God failed in His mission to pay the redemption price to reconcile all things to Himself?

    Impossible! The LORD Jesus Christ never fails, because He is God’s Living Word.

    His bodily resurrection proves; Christ never sinned, never failed, and has already redeemed the whole world: People, animals, birds, fishes, plants, microbes, and atoms.

    Sinners Need to Repent: But Animals and Plants Are Exempt

    Humans must repent and believe on Christ in order to benefit from redemption, but the rest of Creation is under God’s Grace.

    Sinners who refuse to Repent, and Believe on Christ, remain condemned to eternal Hell because they inherited Adam’s guilt from their ancestors, added to it, and then reject the Only Saviour.

    The only way any human can ever enter Heaven is to be born again by Heart-faith in the LORD Jesus Christ.

    Man Is Guilty: Creatures Are Innocent Victims

    The LORD is perfectly just and knows it was not the animals’ and plants’ choice to rebel against Him.

    So they will be in Heaven because of Christ’s Sacrifice and Mercy.

    That’s why Creation groans and suffers, waiting for the Body of Christ to be completed, and then glorified. Romans 8:18-23 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.

    And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

    The redemption of our body refers to the glorification of the whole body of believers, once the final sinner is saved. (Aside: When is the believer’s body redeemed?)

    This graciousness of God becomes self-evident when you Walk With The LORD.

    If this is a new thought to you, it’s time to comprehend redemption.

    Redemption and Restitution Have Always Been God’s Plan

    The greatest man born of woman (according to Christ Mtt. 11:11, Lk. 7:28) prepared the way for the Messiah, being quoted in Acts 3:19-21 KJV;

    Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you: Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.

    John the Baptist’s ministry introduced The LORD manifested in The Flesh, under the Old Covenant of do-this-and-live, which was sealed with animal’s blood.

    Nobody has ever kept that covenant except ONE : The LORD Jesus Christ.

    God came to Earth, born of our flesh (through Mary, Jesus’ Mother), under His own Law, kept it perfectly, then laid down His sinless life to redeem Creation to Himself.

    Reconcile All Things To God

    Christ died to reconcile all things to God in Himself, Col. 1:19-20 and Eph. 1:10 KJV;

    For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell; And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

    That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:

    Notice: Reconcile ALL thingsthings in earththings in heavengather together all things in Christin heaven and which are on earth.

    What could be plainer than that?

    Yet people still ponder, “will there be animals in Heaven?”

    They imagine Christ died merely to forgive their sins, but His Sacrifice paid for the whole of Creation to be restored to God’s Will on Earth, as it was before The Fall.

    In the Genesis Creation, it was God’s will the Earth be filled with both people and animals, so there must be animals in Heaven too. Both before the Fall, in the New Heaven, and on the New Earth.

    Remember when you prayed as a child? Mtt. 6:10 KJV; Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

    Are you beginning to see the bigger picture now?

    Ask Father to deepen your understanding of the New Creation realities believers have right now.

    Please don’t allow dead-religion to rob you of the Good News of your Blood-bought inheritance in Christ.

    What Good News?

    The Good News of the good things Christ has already done for everyone.

    Good news if you are a sinner, The LORD Jesus Christ has borne your sin, while you are still sinning.

    Why?

    So that when you repent from unbelief and believe on Him, your sin and guilt can be remitted, and your heavenly account will be made clean as snow instead of black as night.

    So what?

    Quit rejecting His redemption offered to you today, and accept Christ as LORD and Saviour.

    The good news that God in The Flesh has not only borne your sin, guilt and punishment, but also took your diseases and sickness on Himself at Calvary.

    Why?

    So that as you believe on Him and follow in His steps you will be healed, set free from sickness and all Satan’s power.

    So what?

    So accept His redemption of both your spirit and your body and be totally healed inside and out.

    The Good News that God has come from Heaven and fixed your sin problem once and for all.

    Why?

    Because you’re lost in sin and bound by demon power, unable to break free.

    So what?

    So repent from unbelief, the greatest sin of all; believe on Christ as LORD and Saviour, and you will know you are free forever, and will be welcomed into Heaven.
