There is a great eternal future for GOD's chosen and His animal kingdom!
Hosea 2:18, "In THAT DAY I (GOD) will make a covenant for them (saved mankind), with the beasts of the field...
"and the birds of the air...
"and the creatures that move on the ground."
(Insects of all kinds.)
The LORD has promised in His WORD that the animal kingdom will be as it was in its innocence in the Garden of Eden.
Isaiah 11:6-8, "The wolf will live with the lamb...
"...the leopard will lie down with the goat...
"...the lion with the yearling...
"...The cow will feed with the bear...
"The infant will play near the hole of the cobra and neither will be destroyed."
At that time the animals "...will neither harm or destroy on all His Holy Mountain, the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea!" (Isaiah 11:9)
John's words describes the New Heaven, the New Earth, and the New Jerusalem in Revelation 21:1-5, "I saw a New Heaven and a New Earth, for the first heaven and earth had passed away. I saw the Holy City, the New Jerusalem come down out of heaven from GOD. A loud voice from the throne said, 'Now the dwelling of GOD is with men. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death, mourning, crying, or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. I have made everything New!"
