Randy Alcorn Quote

If I promised you a new car, would you say, If it’s new, it probably won’t have an engine, a transmission, doors, wheels, or windows? No, you’d never make such assumptions. Why? Because if a new car didn’t have these things, it wouldn’t be a car. Likewise, when Scripture speaks of a new Earth (2 Peter 3, and Revelation 21), we can expect that it will be a far better version of the old Earth, but it will truly be Earth.
