why the mighty shall inherit the earth?

The meek shall inherit the earth.  The rich are just using it right now to justify being damned for eternity.

earth is one place and heaven another.

Ok, prepair yourself.  Before God even began creating the earth he has known EVERYTHING.  He knew that you would ask this question and that i would answer it.  God's choice is more God's will, and we are all in God's will.  If he wills it, it IS. \n\nIts easier to think of as a destiny.  He has the path set and we follow it.  Eventhough we are making our own desicions they are not new to Him.

Something much more powerful than humans. You could call it God, a higher Source, the higher light, etc. The reasons WHY earth was made vary. I think it was made as sort of a school for souls to come here and learn valuable lessons, learn, then when they die go back home.

"the present heavens(universe) and earth by His(God's) word are being reserved for fire, kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men...the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up." (2 Peter 3)\n\nIn light of God's revelation, we should be investing in and looking for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.

The Mighty All-Capable is Waliy Al Mo'mineen.\n\nFreedom Shall be granted to those who do not transgress insha'Allah.\n\nAll others will only bring poverty and misery to themselves as a result of thier greed and arrogance.

To develop our souls for eternity. To be more holy like God. We come back to Earth born over and over until we learn this. Look at this world it is full of hatred, lack of forgiveness, greed, no compassion, self centered fools, lack of sharing, no patience, no hope, no tollerance, no wisdom. We serve our selves not God. We need to realize our souls will live on. We will go to heaven and see the lives we have led in detail. What did we learn in this life, how did we see our fellow man, what did we do to help others, how did we take care of mother earth?\n\nOur purpose is to love God, become more holy, take care of others, and learn and grown so that our souls can become more. Who will populate other worlds, who will be the next explorers? Those that God chooses, the ones that represent him.

Many of us would like to live our live and find out what our purpose is, so it would be rather selfish to KABOOM the the earth. It is the internal Satan we must fight. I believe that the core of the earth is fire for the sake of keeping the oceans stable. I do not believe that he is down there,.. only in a portion of our heart. We have to find solutions to extinguish the devil there.

There are those who reason that, because of the very nature of the physical universe, the time must come when the sun will no longer shine and the earth will no longer sustain life. But are they correct? What does the Creator say—the One who brought into existence energy and matter, the One who originated the laws on which our existence depends?\nSolomon penned these words: “A generation is going, and a generation is coming; but the earth is standing even to time indefinite.” But for how long? According to the literal rendering of the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures, it will be “to time indefinite.” What does that mean?\nAs to what the expression means in connection with the earth, we are not left in doubt. At Psalm 104:5 we are told: “He has founded the earth upon its established places; it will not be made to totter to time indefinite, or forever.\nThus it is regarding the planet Earth on which we live that Jesus Christ taught his followers to pray to God: “Let your kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also upon earth.”—Matthew 6:9, 10.\n\nJehovah’s will is not for the earth to be inhabited by people who have no regard for its Owner and little love for one another. Long ago he promised: “Evildoers themselves will be cut off, but those hoping in Jehovah are the ones that will possess the earth. The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it.” (Psalm 37:9, 29) “The inhabited earth to come,” of which the Bible speaks, will be populated by people who fear God and sincerely love their fellowmen. (Hebrews 2:5; compare Luke 10:25-28.) So great will be the changes that take place under God’s heavenly Kingdom that the Bible speaks of “a new earth”—not a different globe, but a new human society that will live amid the paradisaic conditions that mankind’s Creator purposed from the time he began his earthly creation.—Revelation 21:1-5; Genesis 2:7-9, 15.\n\nThe establishing of that “new earth” will, of necessity, be preceded by great destruction—one surpassing anything that mankind has yet experienced. For the good of the earth itself and all who are truly grateful to its Creator, he will “bring to ruin those ruining the earth.” (Revelation 11:17, 18) \n Peter writes that God brought the Deluge “upon a world of ungodly people,” while preserving Noah and his family; in this way “the world of that time suffered destruction when it was deluged with water.” (2Pe 2:5; 3:6) It may again be noted that the reference here is not to the destruction of the planet or of the celestial bodies of the universe, but it is restricted to the human sphere, in this case the unrighteous human society. It was that “world” that Noah condemned by his faithful course.

To follow God and try to follow his instructions (the bible) to get to heaven. Thats what I know. The point of living on earth is to bring others to Christ so they can come to heaven with you! :)

The earth is being destroyed by mankind. It won't be overpopulated but drained out by human mischieves. Our duty is to preserve peace and harmony. What a pity...the beautiful earth is a war-ridden ball.

Because they were the most wicked generation in human history.  Only the last generation before the end of the world will rival Noah's generation.  In short, they deserved it.

What makes you so High and Mighty??

Yes, but it doesn't mean that the rest will go to hell. Majority of mankind who finds favor with God will inherit the earth.\n\nConsider these verses:\nMatthew 5:5. Jesus said that the meek shall inherit the earth, not heaven.\nJohn 3:13. No one--including Moses, and Abraham--at the time of Jesus went to heaven. So, where are they? They are naturally waiting for the resurrectionn on earth--just like when Lazarus, and many others were resurrected on earth, not in heaven.\n\nRevelations 5:10 says that certain ones were bought from every tribe and country, and they shall rule with Christ on EARTH. Naturally, if there are rulers, then there are subjects. These "royal class" who will be in heaven with Christ will rule with him and restore paradise earth.\n\nRevelations 14:1-4 says that those who were bought from the earth numbers 144K.\nRomans 11:11,12 confirms that there is a limited number of Jews (spiritual that is, and not literal).\n\nTry reading carefully Revelations 5:9-10; and 14:1-4 and you will get the connection between the 144K and those who will rule with Christ.\n\nThe above verses further ties in nicely with Matt 6:10 (thy kingdom come, not thy kingdom go up), and Rev 21:2-4 which mentions New Jerusalem, which represents God's kingdom, coming down on earth to restore Paradise on earth.\n\nSadly, many do not know this. They have been blinded by  false teaching w/c claims that the good ones will go to heaven.

Your question is somewhat hard to understand, but I'll try...\n\nThese are some of the blessings which God's Kingdom will bring to the earth:\n\n** Psalm 37:10,11 - "Just a little while longer, and the wicked one will be no more; But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth,\nAnd they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of PEACE."\n\n** Psalm 46:9 - "He is making WARS to CEASE to the extremity of the earth."\n\n** Isaiah 25:8 - "He will SWALLOW UP DEATH forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will certainly wipe the tears from all faces."\n\n** Isaiah 65:21-23 - "They will BUILD HOUSES and have occupancy; and they will PLANT VINEYARDS and eat their fruitage...Like the days of a tree will the days of my people be; and the WORK of their own hands my chosen ones will use to the full.  They will not toil for nothing, nor will they bring to birth for disturbance."\n\n** Job 33:25 - "His flesh become fresher than in YOUTH;\nHe will return to the days of his YOUTHFUL VIGOR."\n\n** Revelation 21:4 - "He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away."\n\nThese are just a few of God's promises for the new world, in which God's Kingdom (government) will rule forever.

Sometimes I ponder this question myself.  For all of mankind's achievements we are still not very wise.  Man at times forgets what a small part of the universe we are and in our arrogant stance push aside the powerless, underprivileged, ignorant and the enviorment that we all need to live.\n\nPurposefully, many times only the wealthy can afford life saving science or science to provide food, shelter, weapons.
