Only the Little flock Go to Heaven. But the great crowd Inherit the Recreated AND Perfected Earth, just as it had been made perfect for ADAM and EVE!
After All God made it God will fix it! No Problem!
Also in Revelation 21 3-6 God Promises to Spiritually reside and protect Humans Earth wide who have been faithful to him.
Many thousand years before in Psalms....Especially Psalms 37 GOD ALMIGHTY Promises that faithful, and Humble humans will Posses the Earth...THE LITERAL EARTH..After wickedness has been done away with!
Just read for your self! A little bit, EVERY DAY!!

They are in heaven.

Revelation 7:9 After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10 and crying out with a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!"

John sees the 144000, 12000 male virgins from each of the 12 tribes of Israel (all this is symbolic, by John's day 10 of the 12 tribes were already lost), and 144000 is 12 x 12 x 1000, which symbolises the old testament church (12 tribes) the new testament church (12 apostles) and a huge number (1000), in other words, a large number made up of all of God's people.

John then he sees a huge multitude from every kind of people, all standing before God's throne celebrating. Different interpreters have interpreted this variously:

a) The vast multitude is the same group as the 144000. verses 1–8 portray the sealing of the 144,000 to prepare them to stand through the terrors that attend the coming of the Messiah, whereas vs. 9–17 show them afterward rejoicing about the throne of God in peace and triumph. Moreover, the later verses reveal that the 144000 is not a literal number but a symbolic one and that it is not made up only of male virgin jews from the 12 tribes but of all God's people.

b) The 144000 and the great multitude are different groups. The 144000 are a special group, “the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb” who “follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth” (ch. 14:4), and the great multitude is everybody else who gets to heaven.

c) The great multitude is everyone who ends up in heaven, and it includes as a subset the 144000.

No. Theirs is an earthly hope. They are the ones referred to in Ps. 37:10-11 the meek inherit the earth and find peace. They are both living through Armageddon and resurrected from the dead. Some who were faithful, others who never had a chance to choose who they would serve.

Rev 7:13-15

13 Then one of the elders asked me, "These in white robes—who are they, and where did they come from?"

14I answered, "Sir, you know."

And he said, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. 15Therefore,
"they are before the throne of God
and serve him day and night in his temple;
and he who sits on the throne will spread his tent over them.

I would say they are in heaven because the throne of God is in heaven.
