or even only the wicked,
Turn away from what is bad and do what is good,
And so reside to time indefinite. For Jehovah is a lover of justice,
And he will not leave his loyal ones.
To time indefinite they will certainly be guarded;
But as for the offspring of the wicked ones, they will indeed be cut off. The righteous themselves will possess the earth, And they will reside forever upon it. psalm 37 ;27-29

Mee, I'm curious... define "indefinite" and "infinite" ... do you really want to live forever in a colour-enhanced watchtower pamphlet?

Re: What is our best hope for Peace on Earth?
Our best hope for peace is an impenetrable dome. It wouldn't have to be round, we could make it fit over a continent. We could have Habitrail tubes that connect to our allies in other impenetrable domes of their own. We need something to keep all the Thems out, and walls just won't do it these days. Domes for peace.

my hope is based on the bible and what it promises for those who want it.
For the upright are the ones that will reside in the earth, and the blameless are the ones that will be left over in it. PSALM 37;29
i am a work in progress.
(Isaiah 66:22) “For just as the new heavens and the new earth that I am making are standing before me,” is the utterance of Jehovah, “so the offspring of YOU people and the name of YOU people will keep standing.”
(Matthew 25:46) And these will depart into everlasting cutting-off, but the righteous ones into everlasting life.”
(Revelation 21:3) With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them.

How about the tent of God
(Revelation 21:3) With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them.

And the One seated on the throne said: “Look! I am making all things new.” Also, he says: “Write, because these words are faithful and true.” REVELATION 21;5

The highway of the upright ones is to turn away from bad. One who is safeguarding his way is keeping his soul PROVERBS 16;17 keeping to the right way leads to blessings . so if we dont do that then our time will be up , thats how i see it . so it could be forever its up to us .

Re: What is our best hope for Peace on Earth?
What is our best hope for Peace on Earth?
the answer is in the bible DANIEL 2;44
And in the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be brought to ruin. And the kingdom itself will not be passed on to any other people. It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it itself will stand to times indefinite;
And yes Jesus will be ruling as king . his father has given him great aurthority DANIEL 7;13-14
I kept on beholding in the visions of the night, and, see there! with the clouds of the heavens someone like a son of man happened to be coming; and to the Ancient of Days he gained access, and they brought him up close even before that One. And to him there were given rulership and dignity and kingdom, that the peoples, national groups and languages should all serve even him. His rulership is an indefinitely lasting rulership that will not pass away, and his kingdom one that will not be brought to ruin.
Putting our trust in the right ruler and the right goverment will lead to everlasting life on a paradise earth .
"Do not put your trust in nobles, nor in the son of earthling man, to whom no salvation belongs."—PSALM 146:3.
(Matthew 5:5) "Happy are the mild-tempered ones, since they will inherit the earth.

Its is just like what is solution of humanity i would say that is that all the religion come to one religion and believe in one God and Islam teaches all brotherhood fraternity and everything and it also tell the practical way of implementing it in our lives. This is my opinion you may or may not agree.

Hi islamis4u,
The world is a big, big, big place, with lots of different ideas on how it should be run. The "my way or the highway" point of view doesn't seem to be working at the present time, do you have any other ideas to help bring about peace?
Joe
