We're all used to having animals around.From the Biblical point, God created animals even before Man.He had Adam name the animals.At the flood, when Noahs family was saved in the Ark, God also saved the animals, 2 of each,to go out and breed again.In the New Testament, Jesus rode in on a donkey.In Revelation, we read of Jesus sitting on a white HORSE, which is an animal.In the Millenium, we stil hear of animals{"the lion will lay down with the lamb",etc.Jesus was called the lamb of God,.Obviously, God figures animals into things.When Adam and Eve fell, death entered the animal kingdom,too because they are part of the creation.But now the question: we hear about animals until the millennium,but they're not mentioned either way in the New Heaven and Earth.SOO..before you say,"Why would God create something, then change His mind and do away with it?"Before you say that,remember, God also created the sea,but in Revelation we read,"Then I saw a New Heaven and a New Earth, for the old Heaven and Earth had passed away, AND THE SEA IS NO MORE". Now God created the sea and did away with it, could that apply to animals?The difference I see is that the sea is not alive, but animals are a living creation. I lean towards thinking there will be animals after the new creation. But, they're not mentioned after the Millenium, and God did away with the sea. What do you think?
