The Bible does not present a contradiction on this issue.
Take a moment to consider what Psalm 102:26 (which you quoted in support of your understanding that heaven/earth will "live forever") says: "They [heaven and earth] will perish, but You will endure; Yes, they [heaven and earth] will all grow old like a garment; Like a cloak You will change them, And they will be changed." KEY WORD: CHANGE, not DESTROY or REPLACE.
God explains that His original creation will grow old and need to be renewed. This is accomplished in Rev. 21:1: "Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea." God doesn't say that a totallly different heaven and earth will be created; He says that heaven and earth will be renewed when He CHANGES them. That's why "the earth abides forever," as written in Ecc. 1:4.
But what is it that causes heaven and earth to grow old and need to be renewed? SIN:
2 Peter 3 reads: "10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. 11 Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, 12 looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat? 13 Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells."
Christians HAVE come to the true word of God: The Bible, which was closed more than 500 years before muhhamad walked the earth and died in his sins.

So now you are claiming that the Bible is unscientific, but the Qu'ran is? Clearly you have not read the Qu'ran properly. If you had you would have found these false science claims:
27:61 Claims the Earth does not move.
67:5 The stars are lamps that can be used as missiles
81:2 The stars will one day fall out of the sky
18:86 The sun sets in a muddy spring

Why can it not perish AND live forever? Is that not what Jesus did...die only to be reborn, that's not unscientific at all. In fact that sort of thing happens all around us every day. Plant material dies, and is reused, re-lives, in essence, as food for animals. Everything on the planet dies and is reborn in some other form, perpetuating a cycle wherein the Earth replenishes itself naturally for eternity through the perishing and rebirth of its inhabitants. This is a very weak comparison of two scriptures in order to try to proove a point.
There's probably a great number of things in the Bible that you could have picked on to try to disproove, which make a lot less sense than these two conflicting scriptures because upon further thought, they really aren't as conflicting as they seem to be.

The understanding and wisdom of the Word of God comes with a relationship with Him. To have a relationship with someone is to learn about that person inside and out without prejudice. To know the Lord Jesus Christ is to know Love & sacrifice. It is to know hatred from this world like attacks such as these questions and worse. We would still lay down our lives for the people who hate us and kill us daily. Looking from the outside in, one will probe and always look for some tiny shread of doubt to pick at until he/she can build a case against Him, and ultimately find out that God is real and loves us, no matter what choice we make. When Adam made a choice to sin and condemn man and this world to death, God sent Jesus to pay the price for that sin so that we could live if we choose forever. With that said. both cases are correct. When God created the earth, it was good and made to last forever. However, when Adam listened to satan and sinned, that sin brought a payment or consequence of death, for the wages of sin is death. Adam was made from the earth so the earth and everything in it was cursed and condemned to spiritual (seperation from God) and eventually physical death. So this physical Adamic(made for adam and his decendants) earth that you read about in Hebrews will pass away. However, God had a plan to save his creation if we choose (God is Love and He gave us a free will, and did not make us puppets or robots). John 3:16 - God so loved the world(the world of men and women) that He sent His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him, will not perish, but have everlasting life. That was His plan. The blood of His Son, for our lives, if we accept. Jesus Chist's sacrificial death paved the way for our salvation as well as the creation of a new earth.
Isaiah 65:17 - For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former things shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
Isaiah 66:22 - For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the Lord, so shall your seed and your name remain.
2 Peter 3:13 - Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
Finally, The book of Revelations Chapter 21
Revelations 21:1 - And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
God Bless You!

Well the world can perish and live on. The thing about the bible is that it can be interpreted differently. Of those two verses, both actions can happen. In revelations, it says the world will be destroyed and it will be "rebuilt" again for the people of Christ...With God, anything is possible. The bible contains his words therefore it is possible.

You need to see it as a fact.... there are two worlds... One good and one bad.. The bad will perish while the good will live forever.. The concept of good vs. evil is everywhere in the bible.... think about that.. The bible is not scientific... but then science is proving the bible true.. think about that. Please respect other religions.., I have nothing against yours.. I am a Christian.. Do not judge or you, your self will be judged. The "true" religion is not known to man but in the relationship man has with God............

Did you miss the part about there will be a new heaven and a new earth. it does matter how many books we read. the only thing that is going to get us to heaven is our hearts being right with God. Many wars have been over religion everyone thinking they are right when everyone is wrong the ways of men lead to death. God does not like his children arguing over religious rites
we must have a personal relationship with him and believe Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins and rose again on the 3rd day Jesus was the only one who rose from the dead that He went to the grave hell and set the captives free and many people who have been long dead were seen on the streets.

It's unscientific if taken litterally. You must consider that any "book of God" is full of contradictions. This is because humans were used as messengers and scribes and we all know that humans are easilly corrupted and sway in the face of power. if you were one of these messengers would you be able to resist adding your own insight and beliefs? To find the true word of God look to your heart.

sure, because of the very incontrovertible reality that there'll consistently be a lack of believe between human beings. there'll consistently be those who decide others and stereotype others and misperceive others. there'll consistently be disagreements that bring about fights particularly than ensuing in a non violent closure. there'll consistently be circumstances even as international places needs to rule and dominate and characteristic capacity to overpower each and absolutely everyone else. And interior those international places, there'll consistently be complicated ridiculous politics to administration. there'll consistently be those who're no longer open minded and persons that in person-friendly words take care of themselves without compassion and consistently have their beliefs be the precedence particularly than acknowledging each and every thing in existence. there'll consistently be subject matters because of persons. human beings are the idea of this f-ed up international. So sure, there'll consistently and always be this international so divided and segregated.
