New Heaven and New Earth
Scriptural References: D&C
63:20-21; Rev 21:1; Isa 65:17-25, 66:22, 2 Peter
3:10-13
"...When Jesus Christ comes again and the
Millennium begins, the earth will be changed to the condition it was in prior
to the Fall of Adam and Eve. Before the Fall, the
earth existed in a terrestrial, or paradisiacal, state (a state of paradise).
After the Millennium, the earth will change again to a celestial state prepared
for the presence of God. These changes may have been what John saw taking place
when he “saw a new heaven and a new earth”..." https://www.lds.org/manual/new-testament-seminary-teacher-manual/introduction-to-the-revelation-of-st-john-the-divine/lesson-160-revelation-21-22?lang=eng
Summary of Earthly Transformations
The transformation to a "new heaven and
new earth" signifies a renewal process where the earth returns to a
paradisiacal state at the Millennium's start and achieves celestial glory at
its end. This involves physical and spiritual changes, such as the removal of
wickedness, the binding of Satan, and the earth's preparation for divine
presence. Additional scriptures emphasize this renewal as part of God's plan
for redemption and eternal peace.
Additional Scriptural References:
- Isaiah 65:21-23
(expanding on 17-25): Describes a time of prosperity where people
build houses and inhabit them without fear of loss or vain labor,
symbolizing the absence of poverty and insecurity during the Millennium.

the Lord, the cessation of enmity among all flesh, no sorrow due to no death, and the revelation of hidden knowledge.
His Final Coming: The Lord’s Coming in Red
Scriptural References: Isaiah
63:1-6, Rev 19:13, D&C 133 provides a summation of second coming events and
highlights the Lords coming in red apparel (46 said: a Who is this that cometh
down from God in heaven with dyed b garments ….48: the Lord shall be a red in
his apparel, and his garments like him that treadeth
in the wine-vat.) which fits here as His final coming prior to His 100 year
reign.
Summary of Christ's Final Coming
Christ's appearance in red apparel symbolizes
His role as a conqueror and judge, treading the winepress of God's wrath
against the wicked. This event marks the transition into the Millennium, with
divine power displayed through judgments and the establishment of righteous
rule. Expanded references highlight the preparatory signs, Christ's kingly
role, and the gathering of the righteous.

section removed based on revised view…Reference my study notes
concerning this ....
Summary of Conditions During the Millennium
The 1000-year reign is characterized by peace,
righteousness, and divine governance. Satan is bound, enmity ceases, and the
earth becomes a paradise. Temple

Healing of the Dead Sea
The "healing of the Dead Sea " as
prophesied in Ezekiel 47:8–12 and Zechariah 14:8 is generally considered a
Millennial event, occurring after the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.
The healing of the Dead Sea
is most likely situated during the Millennium, after the Second Coming, as part
of the earth’s transformation into a paradisiacal state. This placement is
based on the context of Ezekiel’s and Zechariah’s prophecies, which describe a
time of divine intervention and renewal under Christ’s reign. Since the exact
timing of Millennial events is not fully detailed in
scripture, the healing of the Dead Sea remains a general
expectation for the Millennial era rather than a precisely dated event.
Summary of Millennial Transformations (Expanded)
This healing represents broader renewal,
including living waters flowing from Jerusalem,
fructifying barren lands, and symbolizing spiritual revival. It ties into the
earth's paradisiacal shift.
Second Trump (Terrestrial)
Scriptural References: D&C
88:99
End of 1,000 Year Period: Satan Loosed for a Time
Third Trump (Telestial)
Scriptural References: D&C
88:100
Fourth Trump (Sons of Perdition)
Scriptural References: D&C
88:102
Final Battle
Scriptural References: D&C
88:111-114
This is an event, in my estimation, that many
don't understand. It is my guess that when the veil is lifted it will become
very apparent, and all of our experience will come to bare in choosing sides.
Since this is a post coming event I won't spend much time on it, however I will
just state this could be a section in and of itself.
Summary of End Events
At the Millennium's close, Satan is loosed
briefly, leading to deception and a final battle (Gog
and Magog). This culminates in divine victory, final judgment,
and the earth's celestial transformation. Expanded references detail the
sequence of judgments, Satan's defeat, and ultimate renewal.
