Will there be animals in Heaven? (video)
In this 5-minute video, Randy talks about Romans 8:18-22, which says that the whole creation was subject to suffering and futility because of human sin. Creation is under man’s dominion and will share the rewards of his redemption just as it shared the punishment for his sin.

Are animals capable of praising God?
Throughout Scripture we read that animals praise God. I don't know exactly how animals praise God, but our inability to understand it shouldn't keep us from believing it.

Our beloved dog recently died. Should I correct my kids when they say they can’t wait to play with Rocky again in Heaven?
We needn't be embarrassed either to grieve the loss of our pets or to want to see them again. If we believe God is their creator, that He loves us and them, that He intends to restore His creatures from the bondage they experienced because of our sin, then we have biblical grounds for not only wanting but also expecting that we may be with them again on the New Earth.
