God created man for fellowship... The fall of man ruined that and Paradise that is, the garden of Eden was lost, but on the new earth paradise will be regained and God will again fellowship with mankind in a unique sense.

God, through Jesus Christ, is the victory, and the renewed earth will reflect that glory.

Many of the passages that describe the millennial kingdom also, in continuity, describe the new heaven and the new earth the eternal state.

The new earth will complete God's program. It will be what God intended for Adam and Eve in Eden.

Upon death the believer goes immediately into the presence of Christ in heaven, a realm far better than this earth. Heaven is our true home.

Scripture indicates that heaven is not distant but rather... heaven is near in another realm.

When we see one another in heaven, we will have beautiful bodies that will far surpass the beauty of our bodies on this earth.
