69. After the war is over, God will re-create the Earth.
But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare. But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells. {2 Peter 3:10, 13}
There will be an end to this whole mess, and once it has come to an end, God will give us all a new beginning. The consuming fire that is God’s life-giving glory will purify the heavens and the earth, and God will create a new heaven and a new earth, where once again, peace and harmony and righteousness will reign.
He will make everything new, and there will be no more death, no more crying, no more sadness, and no more pain. God Himself will live with us and comfort us and spend the great, unending string of days in eternity with us. We will know the Truth, and we will live with the Truth, and so we will be forever free, never to live through war again.
