The attributes of the new creation let us know that it will
be immeasurably not quite the same as what we are utilized to on earth.
Presumably most recognizable distinction will be the absence of gravity. The
New Jerusalem is depicted as a 1,500 mile shape. Structures of this size would
consequently turn into a circle in this universe, on account of gravity.10
Therefore gravity will either be missing or fundamentally lessened in the new
creation. There will be no Sun or moon. This bodes well, subsequent to there
will be practically no gravity. Without gravity, the new creation would not be
bound to its wellspring of warmth and light. The absence of the Sun is not an
issue for the new creation, since the Bible lets us know that the eminence of
God Himself will give illumination.13 The enlightenment gave by God14 is most
likely not the same sort of electromagnetic radiation (photons) that we call
light.
The enlightenment gave by God unquestionably includes the insight and
learning that He possesses.15 With this sort of light, there would be no
compelling reason to outwardly see things, since this would extremely limit our
capacity to "see" everything as God sees them. There will be no seas,
which implies that there will be no water cycle. It would be troublesome for a
water cycle to work without gravity. There will be the waterway of the water of
life, which spills out of the throne of God.16 Given its source, it appears to
be likely that it may not be fluid water as we probably am aware it. The laws of thermodynamics appear to be missing from the new
creation, since the Bible lets us know that there will be no heat.17 In this
universe, the second law of thermodynamics controls practically everything that
happens. The law expresses that warmth streams from hot bodies to cool bodies.
Stars can't sparkle, creatures can't devour sustenance to deliver vitality to
move, and substance responses can't happen, since every one of these procedures
require the trading of warmth. This law is likewise called the law of entropy
or rot, subsequent to a definitive aftereffect of warmth stream is that the
universe keeps on turning out to be more cluttered. Science lets us know that
the universe, as we see it now, is transitory. It has a minute of creation, and
without God's mediation, will in the long run extend to deliver an accumulation
of icy, inert matter. Clearly, such a universe would not be satisfactory for
lodging unceasing creatures, for example, those portrayed in the new creation.
As talked about already, the procedures requiring heat stream appear to be
missing from the new creation. These incorporate the Sun, the ocean and a water
cycle, and developing old and dying.11 Although there is portrayed a tree (the tree
of life) that proves to be fruitful in paradise, it doesn't appear to arrive
for eating. Truth be told, the Bible says, "the leaves of the tree are for
the mending of the nations."18 Given all the roughness and genocide that
has been executed on the earth throughout the hundreds of years, there will be
requirement for recuperating among every one of the society. The absence of
eating in heaven19 obliges the thought that thermodynamics will be truant
there. At last, the Bible says "the creation itself likewise will be sans
set from its subjection to corruption,"20 proposing a discharge from the
laws of thermodynamics.
