'' 2 Peter 2:12

The world includes living and non-living things will be burnt with the fire of destruction at the judgement day . The plants , the animals , the mountains , the houses , ultra modern buildings, all forms of vehicles shall burn to ashes .'' But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up '' 2 Peter 2 :10

After the destruction of this present world , { earth and sky } , then will appear the new heaven and earth where God dwells with his people .'' And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.'' Revelation 21:1 Among other things the new heaven and the new earth , has no sea .It is a city that the Lord Jesus has prepared for the saints of God in heaven with mansions for them to dwell forever with the Lord .'' In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.'' John 14:2
