“There are new heavens and a new earth that we are awaiting according to his promise, and in these righteousness is to dwell.

(2 Pet. 3:13, 14) Those “new heavens” were the “city” that faithful Abraham awaited so patiently, a heavenly government “having real foundations, the builder and maker of which city is God.” (Heb. 11:10) The “new earth” is the new human society made up of all those who procure a blessing through the spiritual ‘seed of Abraham.’​—Gen. 22:18; Rev. 21:1.
