"When we study God’s word in-depth, we then have a full understanding the Bible reveals that animals will be in heaven,” Stanton writes in Animals in Heaven. Stanton notes: "We have to take into account the fact that God loves all of his creation and not just certain ones. ...God has no requirements for animals to be saved. Animals need not be saved from the sinful actions and thoughts of humanity. If God required them to be saved it would mean they have sinned against him. Since we know animals don’t sin then we have to say they are saved already.” Isaiah foresaw lions and lambs lying down together, as well as bears, cows, and cobras; and John foresaw the saints galloping on white horses." A Rainbow Bridge for Pets? The famous poem “The Legend of Rainbow Bridge” by William N. Britton describes a place at the edge of heaven called Rainbow Bridge, where pets who have “been especially close to a person here on earth” wait peacefully for a “joyous reunion” with the people they loved after those people die and arrive in the afterlife. The poem tells grieving pet lovers that, “Then with your beloved pet by your side, you will cross the Rainbow Bridge together” into heaven. While the poem is a work of fiction and there isn’t a rainbow-colored bridge that people and their pets cross over to enter heaven together, the poem does reflect the reality that people will be reunited somehow with their pets in heaven, believers say.
