Are people going to live forever? Doing what forever and ever? Everyone is going to love each other no matter what? No envy? no desires? Are people going to procreate?
I Imagine there will be no killing, so there goes the meat.
Is everyone going to dress alike and have similar houses and similar families there's no envy?
It's like the tale of Cinderella, People are going to live happily ever after, and everyone accepts it, but does not really question what happens next, or how it's going to be.

Well, we all like to speculate, but we only know, right now, what is written in the Bible. There will be new scrolls...meaning that we will have more knowledge as time goes on...
1 Corinthians 13: 12; " For at present we see in hazy outline by means of a metal mirror, but then it will be face to face. At present I know partially, but then I shall know accurately even as I am accurately known. 13 Now, however, there remain faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love."
The last verse is the key to being able to wait...we have faith (the assured expectation of things not yet beheld)...because of that sure faith, we have hope...and most of all because we know that God loves us (therefore we love),we know that whatever our future here on earth will be like, we know that it will be wonderful. God would not give us the opportunity to have everlasting life on earth if he couldn't make it satisfying and fulfilling forever! So what we really need to be concentrating on is what we need to do now to make sure that we have a part in that new system of things. Although our works will not get us there, neither will we get there without works.

Did everything that was described in "2001: A Space Odyssey" take place? It's a book too, why didn't that come true?
Remember, the bible is a book of stories, like Aesop's fables or Canterbury Tales or 1984. Just because a word is written doesn't make it so.

Every one always tries to make heavan so boring. I wonder if thats why you have a hard time believing the bible cause you think the life of a Christian is dull. Look God took care of Man in the Garden. God gave us Eve. Jesus made water into wine. I assure you itll be fun.

There will be a new heaven and earth for those who are saved in Jesus Christ- the New Jerusalem- stated in the last chapter. And we who believe will live forever with the Lord, in Joy and praising His name- Nothing bad will ever come into play in Heaven- everything will be good. And those who did not believe while on earth, as it says in Revelation 20 they will be cast into the lake of fire and be tormented day and night forever and ever.....so that will be what is after what Revelation says...Eternal life in Heaven with the Lord for those who are saved- and eternal suffering in hell for those who rejected Jesus Christ.

After everything written there passes, one closes the Bible or reads another part of the myth.

Eternity continues... There is no end to time. There will be those in heaven for eternity, and those in hell (the 'abyss') for eternity. Satan is one of them. All this debate will be resolved. WE HAVE THE VICTORY!
Maybe God would make another Earth, I dunno. I just know I have an eternity of joy to look forward to.
When all Revelation passes, there wont be an Earth... After Jesus rules for 1000 years.
