NEW HEAVEN AND EARTH

You shoupld be living holy and saintly lives while you wait and long for
the day of God to come, when the sky will dissolve in flames and the
elements melt in the heat.

What we are waiting for is what he promised: the new heavens and
new earth, the place where righteousness will be at home. So then my
friends, while you are waiting, do your  best to live lives without spot
or stain so that he will find you at peace....

Help me understand the God's words
through the scriptures, that I may
live a life worthly of God's calling.
