Question

Jesus asked us to pray for God's will to be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Answer 1

Live Forever on a Paradise Earth
What will life be like when God removes wickedness and suffering from the earth and ushers in his new world under the loving control of his heavenly Kingdom? God promises to 'open his hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing.'—Psalm 145:16.

What are your legitimate desires? Are they not for a happy life, worthwhile work, material abundance, beautiful surroundings, peace among all peoples, and freedom from injustice, sickness, suffering, and death? And what about a joyful spiritual outlook? All those things will be realized soon under the rulership of God's Kingdom. Note what Bible prophecies say of the wonderful blessings to come in that new world.

Mankind at Perfect Peace

Man and Animals at Peace

And the cow and the bear themselves will feed; together their young ones will lie down. And even the lion will eat straw just like the bull. And the sucking child will certainly play upon the hole of the cobra; and upon the light aperture of a poisonous snake will a weaned child actually put his own hand. They will not do any harm or cause any ruin."—Isaiah 11:6-9.

"For them I shall certainly conclude a covenant in that day in connection with the wild beast of the field and with the flying creature of the heavens and the creeping thing of the ground . . . I will make them lie down in security."—Hosea 2:18.

Perfect Health, Everlasting Life
"At that time the eyes of the blind ones will be opened, and the very ears of the deaf ones will be unstopped. At that time the lame one will climb up just as a stag does, and the tongue of the speechless one will cry out in gladness."—Isaiah 35:5, 6.

"[God] will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore."—Revelation 21:4.

"The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs [God's memory] will hear his voice and come out."—John 5:28, 29.

Earth, a Paradise of Plenty

"The earth itself will certainly give its produce; God, our God, will bless us."—Psalm 67:6.

"The wilderness and the waterless region will exult, and the desert plain will be joyful and blossom as the saffron."—Isaiah 35:1.

"The mountains and the hills themselves will become cheerful before you with a joyful outcry, and the very trees of the field will all clap their hands. Instead of the thicket of thorns the juniper tree will come up. Instead of the stinging nettle the myrtle tree will come up."—Isaiah 55:12, 13.

"You will be with me in Paradise."—Luke 23:43.

Good Housing for All
"They will certainly build houses and have occupancy . . . They will not build and someone else have occupancy; they will not plant and someone else do the eating. . . . The work of their own hands my chosen ones will use to the full. They will not toil for nothing, nor will they bring to birth for disturbance."—Isaiah 65:21-23.

"They will actually sit, each one under his vine and under his fig tree, and there will be no one making them tremble."—Micah 4:4.

You Can Live Forever in Paradise

God's purpose to restore an earthly paradise will soon be realized

What a marvelous outlook for the future! What real purpose lives can now have when anchored to the solid hope that in God's new world all of today's problems will forever be things of the past! "The former things will not be called to mind, neither will they come up into the heart." (Isaiah 65:17) And how comforting to know that life then will be eternal: "[God] will actually swallow up death forever."—Isaiah 25:8.

Do you want to live forever in that Paradise new world now so near? 'What would I need to do to get God's favor at this world's end and live on into his new world?' you may ask. You need to do what Jesus indicated in a prayer to God: "This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ."—John 17:3.

Therefore, obtain a Bible, and confirm what you have read in this brochure. Search out others who study and teach these Bible truths. Break free from hypocritical religions that teach and do things contrary to the Bible. Learn how you, along with millions of others who are already doing God's will, can share in God's purpose that humans live forever on a paradise earth. And take to heart what God's inspired Word declares about the near future: "The world is passing away and so is its desire, but he that does the will of God remains forever."—1 John 2:17.

Answer 2

As a Christian, I believe that God's will is that people come to Salvation through Jesus. I think it's being done every day. So look around you...this is what the earth is like when God's will is done.

If you want a look at what it will be like when his will is *completed*, take a look at Rev. 22.

Answer 3

Christian say he regularly existed. What converted for him to make a decision he had to create us for we will worship him? When did he emerge as so wanted? How did he be trained he might create? How does he even recognize what he's if he on my own existed. Man, this god inspiration is F-up.

Answer 4

Here's HOW to do God's Will: (then we'll find out what the Earth will be like)

Create a private, personal, direct, divine Relationship with Our Creator.

Only with Our Creator's Love and Peace will we be Truly Free!

Love and Believe in Our Creator;
Love and Believe in Yourself.

Answer 5

If it removes all the humans from this absurd planet, then it will make the world a better place for everything else.


Then again, I don't expect your imaginary deity's will is ever going to be done here.

Answer 6

When Gods will is done, earth will be too.

Answer 7

God finished THIS earth a long time ago (on the 6th day).

He then let it go to develop on its own.

The NEXT world is anyone's guess.

Answer 8

It might look similar to the lot scene outside of a Phish concert.

Answer 9

A cold and barren place, devoid of all life as we know it.

Of course, your god doesn't exist, so we shall never face such a post-apocalyptic world.

Answer 10

Oh my God! it will be like hell!
We will go back to Middle Age. I am telling you, too much religion is not fun!

Answer 11

Maybe the 'Garden of Eden', before the fall!
