The Bible gives a powerful assurance about the future: God will create a completely new Heaven and Earth. In Revelation 21:5, we read, “He who was seated on the throne said, ‘Behold, I am making all things new.’ Also, he said, ‘Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.’” This promise is not just about fixing the broken world we know today. Instead, God will replace the old with something entirely fresh.
Many people imagine Heaven as a perfected version of life as we know it. However, Scripture makes it clear that the transformation will be far greater. The suffering and loss we experience now will no longer exist. The sea, often symbolic of chaos and separation in the Bible, will be removed. Pain and death will be erased forever.
Although we cannot fully grasp what this new creation will be like, we can trust in God’s wisdom and goodness. His power and love ensure that eternity will be both glorious and perfect—not only for His.
REF 21:1-5 NASB:
21 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is no longer any sea. 2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is among the people, and He will dwell among them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be among them, 4 and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away.”
5 And He who sits on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” And He *said, “Write, for these words are faithful and true.”
