Does that mean ‘the end of the world,’ as some people envision it? Will there be a destruction of the earth and all life on it? By no means! In fact, the earth will never be destroyed. It has been “established for ever.” (Ps. 78:69, Authorized Version) What will end, then? The present “age” of wickedness. Then there will be an earthwide fulfillment of God’s promise at Psalm 37:10: “The wicked one will be no more; and you will certainly give attention to his place, and he will not be.” An entirely new order of things will replace this one.\n\nThat will mean the end of the world empire of false religion,  and the end of all its supporters. It will mean the end of national entities with their militarism and corrupt politics and the end of ruthless and greedy commercialism. Will there be any human survivors? Yes, but comparatively few, even as was the case in Noah’s day.\n\nDoes this mean that everyone now will automatically be freed from slavery to sin and will be restored to perfection? Not really. The way this provision works was explained by Jesus himself, who said: “God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, in order that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) Yes, those who exercise faith in Jesus Christ, through whom God made the ransom provision, will enjoy life everlasting from which Adam’s willful disobedience had cut them off.\n\nSurvivors of this world’s end will be blessed with peace, plus the one's that will be resurrected at a later date.

the spiritual weight that besets us is sin.\nPatience is perseverance.  There should be footnotes at the bottom of the pages of your Bible.  They help explain some of the verses.  Ask God for wisdom before you start reading.

Meek means teachable. Of course we must be teachable, because none of us knows everything.

Psalms 115:16 As regards the heavens, to Jehovah the heavens belong,\nBut the earth he has given to the sons of men.\n\nHeaven is for Jehovah God, Jesus, and his angels!\nEarth is however for man!\n\n(Psalm 37:29) The righteous themselves will possess the earth, And they will reside forever upon it.\n\n(Isaiah 45:18) For this is what Jehovah has said, the Creator of the heavens, He the [true] God, the Former of the earth and the Maker of it, He the One who firmly established it, who did not create it simply for nothing, who formed it even to be inhabited: “I am Jehovah, and there is no one else.

Most of his major sayings aren't original.  The so-called "Golden Rule" was spoken by a Rabbi long before Yeshua was a gleam in his sky daddy's eye.  And the Greeks and Confucians before him.  Several of the beatitudes are also found in Psalms and Isaiah.  Not a sign of true original thought.

No, what it means is that those who trust Gods judgement rather than their own wants, are the meek in the eyes of God.

Blessed [are] the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.\nPeople who can not get enough of GOD, People who know their true state before GOD almighty.

Ancient Jews, first century Christians, and Jehovah's Witnesses understood/understand it to refer to the original prospects that God presented to Adam and Eve: perfect life in a paradise earth, with everyone practicing true worship. The Scriptures clearly teach this as the hope for the majority of mankind today and throughout history.\nPs 37:11 'the meek will possess the earth'\nProv 2:21 'upright will reside in the earth'\nIsa 45:18 'God formed the earth to be inhabited'\nMatt 5:5 'the mild will inherit the earth'\nRev 21:3 The tent of God is with mankind

7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. \n\n8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. \nRev. 21:7-8\n^_^

Psalm 19:1-4 (NKJV)  \n    The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork.   Day unto day utters speech, And night unto night reveals knowledge. There is no speech nor language  Where their voice is not heard.  Their line has gone out through all the earth, And their words to the end of the world.\n\nRomans 1:20 (NKJV)  \n    For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,

Exodus 13:9-- \nAnd it shall be for a SIGN unto thee upon thine hand, and for a MEMORIAL between thine eyes, that Yahweh's Law may be in thy mouth; for with a strong hand hath the Lord brought thee out of Egypt.\nEzekiel 20:12-13,16,20-- \n12 Moreover also I gave them MY SABBATHS; to be a SIGN between me and them, that they might know that I am Yahweh that sanctify them. \n13 But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them; and MY SABBATHS they greatly polluted: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to consume them. \n16 Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but polluted my SABBATHS: for their heart went after their idols. \n20 And HALLOW MY SABBATHS; and they shall be a SIGN between me and you, that ye may know that I am the Yahweh your Father\n. \nThe Hebrew word translated sign is owth, and means mark. When one obeys Yahweh’s Laws, and observes His Ordinances which govern His Feasts--Doing Every Word That Proceeds From Yahweh’s Mouth, this person is marked by Yahweh as belonging to Him. \nYahweh’s mark is in this person’s forehead because this person’s mind is upon Yahweh and His Every Word. Yahweh’s Mark is also in that person’s hands because that person’s hands cease from doing any work on Yahweh’s Sabbaths. Yahweh’s Mark is the sign upon one’s hands and a remembrance between one’s eyes. \n\nIn the same context, when a person obeys Satan--by rebelling against Yahweh in any way--that person is also marked as belonging to Satan! We are told plainly that we are servants to whom we obey, in: \n\nRomans 6:16--\nDo you not know that to WHOM YOU YIELD YOURSELVES AS SERVANTS TO OBEY, HIS SERVANTS YOU ARE WHOM YOU OBEY--whether of sin, which leads to death, or of Obedience, which leads to righteousness?

you're right. not all will go to heaven.\ni mean.. why did the bible say the meek will inherit the earth then?\nthere are two possible hopes then, either heaven reigning with Christ and god, or the eternal life in perfection on earth, as god originally intended.\nthat arrogant (holier than thou) attitude was present with some of the pharisee that Jesus spoke with

"God spoke all these words, saying: I am the Lord your God,who brought you out of Egypt, from the place of slavery. Do not have any other gods before Me. Do not represent [such] gods by any carved statue or picture of anything in the heaven above, on the earth below, or in the water below the land. Do not bow down to [such gods] or worship them. I am God your Lord, a God who demands exclusive worship. Where My enemies are concerned, I keep in mind the sin of the fathers for [their] descendants, to the third and fourth [generation]. But for those who love Me and keep My commandments, I show love for thousands [of generations]. Do not take the name of God your Lord in vain. God will not allow the one who takes His name in vain to go unpunished. Remember the Sabbath to keep it holy. You can work during the six weekdays and do all your tasks. But the seventh day is a Sabbath to God your Lord. Do not do anything that constitutes work. [This includes] you, your son, your daughter, your slave, your maid, your animal, and the foreigner in your gates. It was during the six weekdays that God made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. God therefore blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. Honor your father and mother. You will then live long on the land that God your Lord is giving you. Do not commit murder. Do not commit adultery. Do not steal. Do not testify as a false witness against your neighbor. Do not be envious of your neighbor's house. Do not be envious of your neighbor's wife, his slave, his maid, his ox, his donkey, or anything else that is your neighbor's." (Exodus 20)\n\nWhat does it mean?\n\n"I am the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of slavery..." \nThis commandment is to believe in the existence of God and His influence on events in the world, and that the goal of the redemption from Egypt was to become His servants (Rashi). \n\n"Thou shall have no other gods besides Me... Do not make a sculpted image or any likeness of what is in the heavens above..." \nThis prohibits belief in or worship of any additional deities or fashioning them. \n\n"Thou shall not swear falsely by the name of the LORD..." \nThis commandment is to never take the name of God in a vain, pointless or insincere oath (Rashi). This includes four types of prohibited oaths: an oath affirming as true a matter one knows to be false, an oath that affirms the patently obvious, an oath denying the truth of a matter one knows to be true, and an oath to perform an act that is beyond one's capabilities.\n\n"Remember [zachor] the Sabbath day and keep it holy" (the version in Deuteronomy reads shamor, "observe") \nThe seventh day of the week is termed Shabbat and is holy, just as God ceased creative activity during Creation. The aspect of zachor (remember) is performed by declaring the greatness of the day (kiddush), by having three festive meals and by engaging in Torah study and pleasurable activities. The aspect of shamor is performed by abstaining from the 39 melachot (forbidden categories of activity) on the Shabbat.\n\n"Thou shall honour your father and your mother..." \nThe obligation to honor one's parents is an obligation that one owes to God and fulfills this obligation through one's actions towards one's parents. \n\n"Thou shall not murder" \nKilling an innocent human being is a capital sin. \n\n"Thou shall not commit adultery." \nAdultery is defined as cohabitation with a married woman (Rashi). \n\n"Thou shall not steal." \nThis is not understood as stealing in the conventional sense, since theft of property is forbidden elsewhere and is not a capital offense. In this context it is to be taken as "do not kidnap" (Rashi). \n\n"Thou shall not bear false witness against your neighbor" \nOne must not bear false witness in a
