Summary: <br> This conversation was recorded long before the current pandemic. I held off publishing it because I didn’t want to introduce anything even remotely controversial. I sincerely hope this will not be controversial. If you disagree with my conclusions, you are welcome to your views and I wish you grace and peace. However, in our current situation, we need hope. We need biblical hope. We need hope for a new world, a world without disease and death.<br> In today’s Bible study, we explore the biblical phrase, “New heavens and new earth.” It may surprise you to learn that the Bible never says Christians are waiting to go to heaven, but it does say we are “waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells” (2 Peter 3:13). This is the first part of a two-part series, so make sure you subscribe to the podcast, so you don’t miss the second part of the “new heavens new earth” series.
