For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it. But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it (Proverbs 2:21-22)
The upright are those who have been made righteous by the blood of Jesus Christ. They have become a new creation in Jesus Christ. They are the ones, who are seated in Him and walk in His commandments. The upright will receive eternal life, and shall dwell in the land of the new earth.
The wicked are those, who have made a decision to live without God. They have rejected His Son Jesus Christ and don’t walk in His commandment, they shall be cut off from the earth. They won’t receive eternal life and will not inhabit the new earth. Their future is not eternal live on the new earth. Instead, their future shall be the lake of fire and eternal death.
‘Be the salt of the earth’
