Do our dogs, cats primarily, plus other much loved pets, go to heaven?
It may seem a trivial question but to a person whose dog or cat has died, it is extremely important.
In everything i say and do, i need to bring souls to Christ, start them on their journey to salvation. A vague answer to a person's questions is not good enough. A person grieving for their dead dog needs comfort and surety. If i as a Christian do not supply it, they may go elsewhere, such as a spiritualist church or a medium. Driven by grief. I have a dog, i have been through the deaths of previous dogs. She means a huge amount to me with her huge love.
So, i am not going to ever tell anyone that animals have no soul, no place to rest after this life.
So what is the Christian understanding of animal souls and afterlife? A straight answer which could be what brings a human soul to Christ.
