If the meek are truly going to inherit the earth, where do you suppose they will be hiding?

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

A very good question, which are rare on here, not only is it possible it is happening right now, and there is a concerted and concealed effort to do so, the bilderbergs for example have formed to do just that. They would argue that they are doing it with good intentions, but would not dispute that it is their goal.  What you are questioning is often called the New World Order, and its objective is to gain global rule so that they can address "global problems", such as population growth, war, and resource allocation. Now you have asked specifically is it possible for them to succeed, or anyone for that matter, they are just the present frontrunners. And the answer is very complex and the answer is both yes and no, so I will try to summarize my answer in brevity, but understand that i am not given enough room to thoroughly do so.  Yes they can militarily gain control of earth, and probably even crush any substantial rebellions, however when examining the subject in detail you have to look at the "what next", what will their policies be, and quite frankly they are self-destructive, so in gaining control they are really gaining the power which will destroy them. The problem (or mine rather) lies in the fact that countless individuals will die simply for resisiting being enslaved, myself included.  For these global conquerers are not a freedom loving bunch, hence why they believe themselves able to rule a planet full of people.  Now the question of whether individual freedom is right, is a different question entirely, and i certainly don't have the space for that, but I whole heartedly believe it is. And thus believe this to be a very bad thing. So you answer your question yes but at what cost and for how long? Permanently, no.

that sounds type apocalyptic, but i think that later on in the future around the year 2120 or so that humans would be far enough in technology to move to another planet thats habitable for life. i think that they would move because the world would be to hostile for them becasue of global warming, soon animals would dominate but scientists predict that the sun would inplode in about 3 billion years, so that would be the end of that....what a mouth full.

end times is not the same as the earth will be done away compleatly.  i agree that it'll be here forever.\n\nthe end times is about the end of satan's run.\n\nthe BIBLE is alive, so, no it wont be old fashioned.

Some would probably think that rapture has come and that what believers have said all along has come true and then there are some who will continue to live outside morality and sin will become even more rampant here on Earth. *(*

It would begin to look like the restored paradise promised to mankind by Jehovah.\n\n(Matthew 5:5-9) “Happy are the mild-tempered ones, since they will inherit the earth. “Happy are those hungering and thirsting for righteousness, since they will be filled. “Happy are the merciful, since they will be shown mercy. “Happy are the pure in heart, since they will see God. “Happy are the peaceable, since they will be called ‘sons of God.’\n\n(Psalm 37:10,11,29) And just a little while longer, and the wicked one will be no more; And you will certainly give attention to his place, and he will not be. But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth, And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace. ...The righteous themselves will possess the earth,\nAnd they will reside forever upon it.\n\nhttp://www.watchtower.org

Psalms 37:10,11 - And just a little while longer, and the wicked will be no more; and you will certainly give attention to his place, and he will not be. But the meek ones themselves will possesss the earth, and they will find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.\nRevelation 21:4 - And 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.

If the habitat is there for them, yes i do , it would be very interesting to see how they live, especially when they are being pushed into extinction here on earth.  If similar habitats exist on other planets that they can survive in, at least that way they will not be forced into extinction, the way this planet is going we will soon have no creatures left.

You mean where did they go?  The bible says they're resting. No one knows where but God.

What many of us old folks figured out about 40 years ago is that the so-called survivors will only have a short while to live. The way the upper level winds circulate will cause the entire planet to move into an extended winter that will not allow plants to grow. Food will run out and when the last Guy gets done eating his last neighbor he will starve to death.\n\nThat's why we stopped wondering about things like you are asking and tried to make people see that hate and conflict are not the answer to anything. Your welcome to join us.\n\nLove and blessings Don

Eventually the sun will swallow the earth; that's pretty much known.  I believe with the demoralization of people that I've seen from the past that we as a people will eventually kill each other off, or our standard of living will eventually go down the drain until third world countries now will look like the upper crust.

God's heavenly kingdom is going to rule over the earth.\nJeus kingdom is a real government that will rule on the earth.  He will destroy all worldly governments and Jesus will rule the world one day.  Then the meek will inherit the earth.

Yeah...this power struggle thing really gets to me too...Unfortunately we as a species have not yet reached a higher conciseness...although some of us are well on our way(including you by the sound of things) and struggle over this territory or that one has been going on since man kind stopped nomadic migration and started up with agriculture and ,,,this plot of land belongs to me and that plot of land belongs to you,...until we find a way to rise above this as a species, I do not see any real hope of improvement!

I wish I knew where they were buried as well.  Also, the original bible, I would love to know where it is...I hope someone gives you a good answer for this question.

This is a question that only God can answer.....we do not know, and we cannot predict the future....I expect it will get worse though, haven't people gotten greedier and more selfish with each generation?

Christians will go forward into the future with blinders on and the smug, self-satisfaction of those who believe they are the "chosen ones" and nothing they do is wrong if the bible tells them so.  People with such an attitude can never learn anything new.
