Where in the King James Bible does it say all dogs go to heaven?

It's a movie. All people don't go to heaven either.

I pray for my critters. I'm hoping for a cabin in heaven for me and all my deceased pets. I'll share them with everybody of course.

I just want to see forest. Go fishing. I don't like concrete asphalt jungles. Go to town every night to praise the Lord and dance. Errr I need lessons. LOL. Mishael

I think that whatever God has determined will be our "estate" (abode) in eternity will be glorious and beyond whatever we could imagine. The godly things we most enjoyed here on earth may be part of that, maybe something even better/ There really is no end or limit to what God could include in our eternity to awe us and "take our breath away". All of our relationships will be holy and wholly satisfying. Our closeness and intimacy with our Lord will be as perfect as it could ever be.

I love the thought of this! What an amazing hope we have in Jesus.

Dear Cathleen,

God will create a new heaven and new earth.

Revelation 21:1

"And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea."

I believe that the new earth that God will create will be inhabited by people and animals, because God tells us so.

Isaiah 65:25

"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."

All of the people and animals will be different than we are today. The new heaven and earth will be total love! Everyone loving and getting along!

We will all be pet lovers in Heaven, and on the New Earth!

God Bless.

Hello Cathleen Lovell,

I'd like to first address that if you lost a pet you loved. I'm sorry for your sadness. GOD has compassion Psalms 145:8-9, Matthew 10:29,

The scriptures do not say "all dogs go to heaven" however there are hints of some creatures.

Isaiah 65:25, Mark 16:15,

It says all beast shall give account of mans blood Genesis 9:5,6,

GOD cares so much for us that HE gave us HIS Son for our Salvation John 3:15-16, knowledge of this helps us trust HIM with everything for HE made it all, All of creation John 1:1, 1 John 4:18,

Hopefully these are helpful

Hello,

That isn't stated in the Bible. There's a cartoon movie by that phrase, but it doesn't come from scripture.

I believe heaven will be more amazing than anyone's wildest dreams. And I think most people ask this question because they deeply miss their pet. Perhaps even some are trying to evaluate whether its 'worth' the effort to follow Jesus? The answer is a 100/100 yes, and the alternative would be terrifying, so it should be an easy decision.

If we trust God with our salvation I'm sure we can trust God with how great heaven will be. But I think it will be different than people will imagine, as it says people will not be given in marriage, for example. Imagine someone with more than one wife and how that would work out. Also, not everyone likes pets, so would they be forced to live with a mean pitfull in heaven for example. I was bitten by my dog and have negative feelings towards it, so my desired version of heaven would not be the same as what others would want. What about fish and childhood insect collections? Some smell and annoy others. I trust that whatever the case it will be mind blowingly amazing.
