What is your game plan in 2024<br />
2024 is here and now is the time to get your<br />
life on the right path.<br />
We just celebrated the birth of our Lord and<br />
Saviour Jesus Christ this past December and<br />
now with the celebration of Christmas behind<br />
us we can focus on what the Lord has in store<br />
for us in 2024. For some it may be to continue<br />
doing what you have been doing for a career for<br />
work and for others this may be the time for a<br />
new beginning, a new job, school, new home<br />
town, church or new relationship. With that<br />
said wishing everyone a Happy New Year and to<br />
make the most of 2024 and beyond by placing<br />
your trust in the Lord everyday to guide and<br />
direct your paths. As we all know we are<br />
continually blasted with news of wars, crime,<br />
corruption, murders, robberies, hate and<br />
violence. The Good news is that as believers we<br />
can understand that Satan is at working 24-7<br />
creating havoc on the earth that our savior left<br />
for Satan to destroy and Satan will continue to<br />
wreak havoc until one day when the Lord<br />
returns and peace will be restored on earth and<br />
evil will be gone forever. As believers we can be<br />
assured that heaven will be our home forever<br />
to live with the Lord Jesus Christ and God the<br />
maker and creator of all. We are in the world<br />
but not of the world during our time we have<br />
on the planet earth. In our time we all have a<br />
free will to decide if we will accept the Lord<br />
Jesus Christ as our Savior and be Born again or<br />
we may choose to reject Christ and live our lives<br />
as we choose being in the world and dying as<br />
unforgiven sinners. Yes we all have sinned and<br />
fall short of the glory of God and the only way<br />
to get to heaven is to accept Jesus Christ as our<br />
Lord and Savior.<br />
John 3:16<br />
For God so loved<br />
the world that he<br />
gave his one and<br />
only Son, that<br />
whoever believes<br />
in him shall not<br />
perish but have<br />
eternal life.<br />

Do Animals Go to <strong>Heaven</strong><br />
Many Christian leaders have also addressed the question of what happens to animals after they die.<br />
John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, taught that humans are stewards of—and responsible for the care<br />
of—God’s creation. When they failed to protect His perfect creation, humans sinned against God, and when<br />
pain and suffering then entered the world, animals had to endure it, too. The bond God had created was<br />
broken, and humans’ exploitation of and cruelty to animals began. Wesley spoke with anticipation of a new<br />
creation in which God would restore animals to their intended glory.<br />
Martin Luther, who founded the Lutheran church, held a view similar to Wesley’s, saying, “In Paradise there<br />
was complete harmony between man and animals; one day again that harmony will be restored and all creation<br />
will be made anew as Christ will be in all and all.”<br />
Pope John Paul II confirmed that “[n]o human being can be justified in claiming absolute ownership of animals<br />
for the simple reason that God alone owns creation. Animals do not simply exist for us nor belong to us.<br />
They exist primarily for God and belong to God. The whole work of creation belongs to the plan of salvation,<br />
‘the mystery hidden for ages in God who created all things.’”<br />
In his book <strong>Heaven</strong>, Randy Alcorn writes, “Horses, cats, dogs, deer, dolphins, and squirrels—as well as the<br />
inanimate creation—will be beneficiaries of Christ’s death and resurrection. … If we believe God is their<br />
Creator, that He loves us and them, that He intends to restore His creatures from the bondage they experienced<br />
because of our sin, then we have biblical grounds for not only wanting but expecting that we may be with<br />
them again on the New Earth.”<br />
Scripture and many of those whom God called to share His message have explained that He created animals,<br />
blessed them, and called them good and that one day they will be part of His restored perfect kingdom. It’s<br />
important to note that God doesn’t differentiate among species, even though it might be more convenient for<br />
some humans to believe that the dogs and cats they share their homes with—but not the chicken they just ate<br />
for dinner—will be with them in heaven. Some people might picture a heaven with doves and majestic elephants—but<br />
not the tiny mouse they killed in a glue trap. Humans don’t get to make those determinations,<br />
though. God does, and His choice is clear.<br />
We don’t have to wait for a new kingdom in order to live in harmony with the rest of God’s creation. Right<br />
now, we can refuse to exploit or abuse animals for experimentation, food, clothing, entertainment, or any<br />
other reason, thus honoring Jesus’ commandment to “love one another.”<br />
