       But we should note that this new world will obviously be better than our current one, and that’s for multiple reasons, like the fact that we will be with God, the people who are our fellow family members who are saved will be there, and that he has created everything even more beautiful. So, in a physical, natural sense, what is this world going to be like? What is it going to look like? Well, Revelation 21 tells us that God is going to create a new heaven and a new earth. The new heaven, again, is a new outer-space. However, there won’t be any sun for the new earth. The text says that God’s glory will be the light of the city, with Jesus being the actual lamp. There also will be no ocean, but there will be water—like the The River of Life that goes through the center of the New Jerusalem, from the throne of God. Animals are not mentioned in the new world; so we don’t know for sure whether animals will be there or not. There will be trees—like The Tree of Life. There will be fruit to eat, then, and I’m sure it will be incredible—better than any earthly food we’ve ever had.
