The earth will be restored to its' original state of paradise as God intended before man sinned. It will be inhabited by those faithful and righteous, where sin and death nor pain will be no more. There will be a special place for the 144,000, in heaven where they will rule as kings and priests with Jesus over the earth. Please consider: Gen. 1:28; Dan. 2:44; Rom. 8:16-17; Rev. 5:9-10, 14:1,3; Ps. 37:10-11, 29; Rev. 21:1-5. Eagerly awaiting that day!!! :)

God created a ideal international interior the beginning up...the unique sin of Adam and Eve brought about the international to alter...we now stay in a sinful, corrupt international till the return of Jesus. After the main suitable judgement, God will set up a clean heaven and a clean earth. 2 Peter 3:13 notwithstanding we, in accordance to his promise, seek for brand spanking new heavens and a clean earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Revelation 21:11 Then I observed a clean heaven and a clean earth, for the 1st heaven and the 1st earth had exceeded directly to the entire beyond, and there grew to become into now no longer any sea. Isaiah sixty 5:17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a clean earth: and the former shall no longer be remembered, nor come into techniques. Isaiah sixty six:22 For because of the fact the hot heavens and the hot earth, which i will make, shall proceed to be before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your call proceed to be.

--THE EARTH indeed has its major place in God's purpose:
(Isaiah 45:18) “. . .For this is what Jehovah has said, the Creator of the heavens, He the [true] God, the Former of the earth and the Maker of it, He the One who firmly established it, who did not create it simply for nothing, who formed it even to be inhabited: “I am Jehovah, and there is no one else.”
--IN LINE with Jesus model prayer as stated "....thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven....."Matthew 6:9, 10
---The earth is mankinds promised home, heaven is not!
--HEAVEN has never been, is not , will never be for mankind to inhabit.
--THE FACT THAT the word Earth is mentioned some 10 times more than the word heaven ,in the Bible, should be evident that man's promised home is the earth! When heaven is mentioned many of the times it is not as a hope but as God's dwelling place or the stars etc.
--The actual change for a human to become a spirit creature is indeed a very unique situation, that did not come to the fore for 4,000 years!
--That came about as a special dispensation after Christ would die, that even when Christ began to teach it , the concept was hard to understand:
(John 3:12-13) “12 If I have told YOU earthly things and yet YOU do not believe, how will YOU believe if I tell YOU heavenly things? 13 Moreover, no man has ascended into heaven but he that descended from heaven, the Son of man. . .”
--SIMPLY BECAUSE it was not God's purpose for man to inhabit the heavens!
--THOSE who are resurrected like Christ was(little flock--Luke 12:32) do not inhabit it as one would inhabit and Island or another planet but have a very special assingnment, more so than the angels!

Not all good people will go to heaven. Revelation 14:3 says that only 144,000 will be going to heaven. - " And they are singing as if a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders; and no one was able to master that song but the hundred and forty-four thousand, who have been bought from the earth."
There is no eternal fiery torment. Ezekiel 18:4 says - "Look! All the souls—to me they belong. As the soul of the father so likewise the soul of the son—to me they belong. The soul that is sinning—it itself will die." If the soul itself dies then it can't be sent to hell.
Psalms 37:11 says - "But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth, And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace." So God's purpose for the earth is to have righteous ones live forever on it in perfect health and happiness.
1 John 2:17 - "Furthermore, the world is passing away and so is its desire, but he that does the will of God remains forever"

To be Inhabited.
That is why GOD Created the Earth.
For HIS Master Creation "Mankind" to Inhabit.
One Day GOD will ReCreate the Earth and take out all of the Evil and Wickedness.
Then, Human Beings won't have to Fight the devils, sin, the Curse so on, AnyMore.
Nothing but Peace and Righteousness.

Regarding how long the earth will remain in existence, we read at Psalm 104:5: “He [God] has founded the earth upon its established places; it will not be made to totter to time indefinite, or forever.” (Compare Psalm 78:69; 119:90.) According to the Scriptures, the earth, with humans to inhabit it, will remain forever.

That's the reason we must seperate ourselves among the bad because we are God's good people. He wants us to be in heaven.
Do you want to be bad and throw into hell by this earth.
