There will be a new heaven and a new earth (2 Peter 3:13). The heavens is cleansed of evil and soon the earth will follow so both heaven and earth will be made new as in no more wickedness. Wickedness was in heaven (Job 1:6) until now when Satan and his demons were cast down to the earth (Revelation 12:7-9) But the earth will not be destroyed because God Himself will bring to ruin those who are ruining the earth (Revelation 11:18) for God did not make the earth for nothing (Isaiah 45:18) but to be inhabited. Wickedness will be forever cut off (Psalm 39:9-11)
Sickness and death banished on earth (Isaiah 33:24) (Revelation 21:4) (Psalm 37:29)
People will build houses and grow vineyards (Isaiah 65:21-22) eat benefit from the fruits of their labours. Further in Isaiah (65:25) even the wolf with be at peace with the lamb and the lion will eat straw like the bull.
But before that takes place we'll have critical times to deal with (2 Timothy 3:1-5) (2 Timothy 3:12) (2 Corinthians 4:4)

Do you long for the day when poverty, suffering, death and wickedness is banished (Isaiah 65:17). Isn't that what people want God to do and there is scriptural proof that he will end all wickedness on earth forever!

Spirit_Rider the heaven is already new, Satan and his demons have now been cast down to Earth and the earth awaits. Satan is causing much suffering on this earth in the last century with wars, poverty and suffering never on a seen before scale.

The new heaven and new earth will come only after the 1,000 year reign of Jesus. For better clarity you may want to purchase "The 1,000 Year Survival Guide" @ amazon.com. This book breaks down how mankind will not only have to survive the reign of the anitchrist, those who do will transition into the 1,000 year reign of Jesus and have to survive the end of his reign, as well. Only those that remain faithful to the Lord to the very end will enter the new heaven and new earth that is still to come.

It will surprise you that Islam too has such a prophecy. Jesus should come down to Earth again (unite the christians and muslims into one community) and spread peace on the earth.
I was surprised when i read this. And yes they say that Jesus will come to slay the Anti-Christ who would have created a lot of unrest on earth.
