The Bible teaches that the coming of Christ will involve the destruction of the current heavens and earth, as detailed in 2 Peter 3.
The Scriptures, especially in 2 Peter 3, provide significant insight into the coming of Christ. Peter warns that in the last days, scoffers will arise, mocking the promise of Christ's return and the impending judgment. He emphasizes that the current heavens and earth will be dissolved by fire, and this judgment is certain, as God has previously destroyed the world through the flood. This reveals God's sovereignty over creation and His ultimate authority in bringing about judgment and restoration, affirming that believers can trust in His promises regarding the future.
