When will the earth be destroyed and transformed into the new earth?
Jack Van Impe states that the earth will never be removed or destroyed, but rather that the meek will inherit it and live there forever. He explains that this transformation occurs soon after Christ returns to earth with his people from heaven.

Jesus Revealed in the End Times
THE END TIME SHOULDN'T SCARE US -- BUT BRING US HOPE Most books about the end times focus on the events described in biblical prophecy -- wars, natural disasters, economic turmoil, and more -- rather than the One who is revealed in those events. The result? God's people end up fearful about what is to come rather than hopeful about Who is to come. But the Bible's prophecies of the last days can fill us with joy and peace as we anticipate the return and reign of our beloved Savior, Jesus Christ. In Jesus Revealed in the End Times, bestselling author Dr. Robert Jeffress takes a radically different approach to prophecy, helping you see the end times through the lens of Jesus Christ. You'll stop fretting about future events as you start to know Jesus more deeply, see Him more clearly, and praise Him more joyfully. By the time you finish this book, you'll not only have a greater understanding of God's plan for the future but also have a greater sense of calm and courage in the face of what is to come -- because you've come to know the One who controls the future.
