Hi Judy; yes, there are animals in heaven; Revelation 19:11-14
And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war. His eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many diadems; and He has a name written on Him which no one knows except Himself. He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. If there is one, theres is more.
ANGIE; before I accepted Jesus and made Him Lord of my life, the bible, to me, was like a strange language. The very minute I accepted Jesus His word became readable to me. Do not give in to satan. Jesus will open your eyes.
absent from the body, present with the lord is a fact. Hebrews 9:27-28 King James Version (KJV) 27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: there is no scripture to indicate we go anywhere but to Jesus.
The Bible says blasphemy against the holy ghost is unforgivable. Matthew 12:31-32 and Luke 12:10. Presumably everything else can be forgivable, even killing, as that's that Paul did, for example.
See John 9:1-3. Christ Jesus answers this question here. See John 14:12. The "works" spoken here are demonstrations of healing done with Love and Truth through Spirit. He never used anything when he healed but God's power. If you are a believer, than you are Christ Jesus' disciple too, also written in the Scriptures. Romans chapter 8 is helpful. The Bible uses symbols so everyone can understand it from different languages at their own pace. The Christ viewed man with Love, he saw no imperfection in them. He saw man as in Gen. 1:26. God is Love, good. There is no fear. I hope this answers your question.
Yes animals will be in the kingdom
Isaiah Chapter 11
4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.
5 And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, ...
6 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.
7 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
until you see Lions eat stray you know this is future
Erica, have you ask Jesus to be in your heart? HE is the only one who can help you understand. The minute you ask Him, He will open your eyes. How? He will send the Holy Spirit to help you.
Dearest Margaret. As a newly born again practicing Christian, and from what studies I've thusly made in the KJV Bible, also personal lessons from my Bible Teacher... Christ Yeshua went to hades for 3 days after his holy sacrifice on the cross. In hades for 3 days he paraded lucifer up and down and all around hade's and showed to ALL who lived there just how little power lucy has. After that is when he took the keys away from the wicked one, and returned them to our Father. Blessing to you and yours.
v8 refers to God upon the throne - the Subject of the Book of Revelation, as the Authority of the Godhead for Salvation and Judgment. In this Book He is always referred to as He which is, which was and which is to come, as in v4. It is v11 that refers to the Lord Jesus Christ - equal with God on the Throne but has submitted Himself to being the Lamb (28 times in Revelation!!). verses 8 and 11 "I am Alpha and Omega" show clearly They are Equal, but with different functions for the Salvation of fallen mankind. Sorry to see this excellent website fall for this very common, but easily avoided mistake if the Scriptures are read properly!!
This would be a plea for all the churches that are in Christ. Come to Christ today, these would be the days.The redemption that is found in the shed blood of our Lord and Savior. If you are reading these words today, you are indeed blessed to know that he comes for his church, if you believe and are baptized you will be a part of it. I plead with the world that prayer and supplications be made for all mankind 1 timothy 2:1 This we should do considering the times that are upon us.God bless us o lord and forgive us our sins for Christs sake.
I agree 100 . Without God's Spirit, you cannot comprehend it. 1st Corithians 2:14. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness to him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discern ed.
Gary some do not understand this Truth so we need to Share with them our Scriptual Confirmation in 1Corinthians2 and Pray they will also understand the need to Ask, Seek and Knock so their Spiritual Eyes will be Opened too if not they will remain Babs in Christ or worse be deceived by Cult Members or teaching in their Bibles which reject Jesus Divinity which means their god is not our God John10.
God is Pure Love!!! Love so Strong you csn move mountains when He showers you with it. Your strength will come from the inside to the outside. I have experienced many a time....
The Word Of God was meant for a Spiritual mind to understand. This makes sense, Spiritual sense, if the ones who penned the Word of God, Penned it under the divine inspiration and Spirit of God, those who understand it must be influenced by that same inspiration and Spirit?
Mark Like many today your not Understanding God's Plan of Salvation for His Redeemed Children. You need like we all do to ask for God's Wisdom none of us were Born with it so we all lack it. Read what I shared with Adam but without doubt I never add to Scripture or take away from it to deceive others and everything I share is Confirmed in Scripture or Creation. Mark We Dont Seek fleshy wisdom.
Remember this not a physical appearance of Christ to John, as it says he was in a spirit on the Lord's day. He appear behind him because he turned and saw him. Then he fell down to his knees when he saw Him that's recognition Remember Jesus is now in Glory, John see Him in spirit. The real God. 2 letter are written to the church, who is the church. .. people not building or angels.
God's Chosen, Revelation 22:19 "And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, GOD SHALL TAKE AWAY HIS PART OUT OF THE BOOK OF LIFE, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book" This means there is a way to lose one's salvation ! Unless they repent, all who translate the modern per-versions will lose their salvation !!!
And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war.

Absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. It needs to be read in context.
