This is referring to the time period of the 1000 year reign of Christ just prior to the final judgement of the earth and Satan. This would be after the tribulations and the scroll, bowl and trumpet judgements have eliminated the unsaved. Christ rules for 1000 years before man's sinful nature reemerges along with Satan being loosed just prior to the battle at Armeggedon, when Satan, his demons, and his followers are cast for all eternity in to the lake of fire. Then God will create a NEW heaven and earth, where only the saved reside. All others will be cast with Satan into hell.
This is perhaps the hardest teaching of the Bible. Alot of people scoff at the Bible and it's teachings. But you know, the more we reveal with our science--archealogy, astronomy, geology, nuclear physics, even genetics--we find the truths revealed in the Bible to be verified.
"Do not be deceived...God will not be mocked...As a man sows, so shall he reap..."

Were suppose to be doing that Now Too!
But most don't know how to Rule and Reign as a King,
When the Rapture or, since rapture ain't in the Bible---changed in a twinkling of an Eye, and we come back 7 years Later we will help put this Earth back together again.
It is an Heirarchy.
Jesus is the Main King and Leader.
We are kings underneath HIM.
Then the people on the Earth.
Told ya the end of the world isn't the end of all of the People and the Earth too!
Told ya!
TOLD YA! (sticks out tongue--spllissshhhhted)
There is an award system with GOD.
The more you do down here (in HIS Will of course) the more you will have to Reign over later on the Earth.
Ditto.............The end of the World is when Jesus comes back and Locks-up the Devils for 1000 years.
Now, there will be wars and destruction too, as never seen befor on the Earth, but not all will be destroyed.

And Animals and individuals would stay ingredient via ingredient, and carnivorous animals would exchange into herbivores.

After the 7 year tribulation period Christ will return with His saints( believers who had died previously and those that were alive at the rapture). These are those that will reign with Christ during the millennium (the 1000 year reign of Christ on earth). You said everyone goes to heaven, not so, just those who have accepted God's gift to mankind, the Lord Jesus Christ) as their Lord and Saviour. Where do you get the idea everyone goes to heaven?, interested.

As you can see people are a little confused as to what happens to us when we die. the bible says earth will be here forever and it also says that only a few will be going to heaven (144,000) to rule as kings. but the bible says that god is going to create a new earth for us to live on...one without pain or suffering.

Ah....
yes, there must be someone to rule over. That would be those who remain on the earth. The "great crowd", "the other sheep".

it's just a fancy metaphor for something. perhaps, it's saying that the good people will be rewarded with all the riches of the earth. something like that.

Just us atheists - and since Gods can't intervene, there will be peace on earth, and goodwill towards men.
Irony, thy name is Rapture!
