>>Suppose one has a pet dolphin. Does that pet enter into heaven? As I understand Scripture, there will be no more seas, so are they in a "holding tank"?
I have been wondering the same thing. But that comes after the 1000 year reign of Christ, when there is a new Heaven and a New Earth.
Perhaps it is a referance to the Sea of Galilee, sense I heard the New Jerusalem will be 1500 by 1500 miles. It could be there will still be a ocean, because God created a ocean in the first place when He seperated the dry land from the water. But I really don't know, I am still waiting on God for that one myself. Thanks, JohnR7
