And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
Revelations 21:1
This Bible passage has haunted everyone, and it seems many have latched onto it with their own interpretations. Eckhart Tolle wrote a book with the title, channelers expect that people of a higher vibration will seemlessly transition onto a new Earth as an old Earth with its lower vibrational peoples will be left behind, some view it literally as a second coming of Christ, and others of man’s acceptance of Christ consciousness through transformation.
The discussion below by James Tabor is well worth listening to.
