New heaven and new earth on the ultimate day of the Lord

Here is something else from my book (The Antichrist and the Second Coming). It continues the post that I put up earlier on the burning of the Land. As I see it, Revelation 21-22 is talking about the same thing as Isaiah 65-66: The destruction of the old covenant order at the full establishment of the new covenant order

What would Jesus do to the planet?

I followed a trail from Kurt’s user biography here on Open Source Theology to his blog to some reflections by John MacArthur on the ultimate futility of environmentalist activism:

The environmental movement is consumed with trying to preserve the planet forever. But we know that isn’t in God’s plan.

The earth we inhabit is not a permanent planet. It is, frankly, a disposable planet - it is going to have a very short life. It’s been around six thousand years or so - that’s all - and it may last a few thousand more. And then the Lord is going to destroy it.

I’ve told environmentalists that if they think humanity is wrecking the planet, wait until they see what Jesus does to it. Peter says God is going to literally turn it in on itself in an atomic implosion so that the whole universe goes out of existence (2 Peter 3:7-13).
