Scripture reference? As much as I’d like to think so I haven’t read anything that suggests this is true.
Does that include mosquitoes and ticks?
Certainly - it's just that their heaven is our hell.
Scripture, schmipture...
He’s the Pope! He’s infallible!
“Scripture reference? As much as I’d like to think so I haven’t read anything that suggests this is true.”
For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope; because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. - Romans 8 NKJV
Well, Jesus returns riding on a white horse, so there's that....
Revelation 5:13 makes a suggestion, though it does not define which creatures are in heaven.
“And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.”
“Does that include mosquitoes and ticks?”
Oh heavens! I hadn’t thought of that!
And the Lion will lie down with the lamb.
All animals go to Heaven.
They are not animals.
“Does that include mosquitoes and ticks?”
Yes and amoebas and parameciums too! /s
No. Don’t be silly.
A lack of scriptural foundation will never stop a good Catholic... but wait...
...there's more!
Scripture does tell us that, at The Judgement, all animals will be asked if they have ever killed a man. This not only implies that an affirmative answer would likely result in some form of nasty consequence for the killer, the completion of that position demands that there be an opposite (or at least different...) result for animals who obeyed God's command not to kill men.
i.e., Heaven.
