Will we be in Heaven or on the New Earth?

Most Christians say, "Jesus is bringing us to Heaven with Him shortly." Now, after the Rapture, we will be in Heaven, avoiding the Tribulation. But look what happens afterwards—the Millennial reign, and then the New Heavens and Earth. Will we be in Heaven for eternity? Well, look at how it's worded. "And I John saw the Holy City, New Jerusalem, descending out of Heaven as a bride adorned for her husband." DESCENDING OUT OF Heaven, descending means to come down. Out of where? Heaven! Descending OUT OF means it doesn't stay in Heaven. It descends from Heaven. Also, if we were all in Heaven for eternity (along with other Christians who were born), the New Jerusalem would be unpopulated. But is it? The Bible states that people will be living there. (And we know that unsaved people don't go on to the New Earth, so they're Christians.) So I believe... after death nowadays, Christians go to Heaven. I believe in the pre-Tribulation Rapture, where we'll be in Heaven... but I think in the New Heaven and Earth, in the next dispensation, we'll be on Earth. Because also, the Earth would be unpopulated, and what's the sense of creating a new Earth if no one will be there? Know what I mean?

There is a lot that points to the new earth. Jehovah's Witnesses and Seventh Day Adventists teach of the new earth. I am not as worried about the afterlife. I am walking daily with the Lord, taking it day by day. But it is very possible that many of us believers will be in an earth inhabited by the meek that is cleansed of evildoers.

According to God's word, a new heaven and new earth will be there for all of us. Just be faithful and true to God Almighty. Remember what Jesus said. "I am going to prepare a place for you, that where I am there you may be also." Relax, believe in Jesus' words. Once our time on earth is up, we will find out where that will be. Do not believe the Mormons, do not believe the Jehovah's Witnesses' lies nor the Adventists'. False prophets and false teachers have come around, and we must be aware of the devil's tactics. He does not want us to end up in paradise. Satan wants us all burning in hell and suffering untold pain.

 

[Holly2]

I am trusting Gods word above all things. We shall be where Jesus want us to be. I am not guessing, I am not predicting, I am just waiting for Jesus promise to be fulfilled. He is preparing a place for us. Where that will be? Only He knows where it is gona be. All we have to do now is to wait and see. Wonderful things shall happen to those who believe, trust and wait for Him.

What is the best thing that You or I can do? The best thing we can do is to get ready to meet God. Listen to this song and be blessed:
