Let’s reread the Bible verses in the picture:
Let’s consider the following points
The current population of the earth is 8.2 billion, but what will it be in the 1,000-year Kingdom of Peace?
How many people can live on Earth at the same time?
In this study, I will only consider Adam and Eve and their descendants, and I will only use the Bible as my starting point. Over the past 6,000 years, a total of about 60–80 billion people have lived on Earth. I choose 75 billion because of the high infant mortality rate in the past.
Over the past two centuries, about 15 billion people have been born, which is 20% of all people who have ever lived. The population alive today (about 8.2 billion) constitutes almost 11% of the entire history of humanity.
So there are a huge number of us, and the population density varies greatly across the globe, as the picture shows.
How many of us could live here today?
If we didn't have wars and if we cultivated the land wisely and distributed food equally, at least 100 billion people could live and be well!
Let's also consider this
What about the 1000-year Kingdom?
Then there will be no more seas, so there will be about 70% more land area than now. There will still be lakes and rivers, so there will be no shortage of water, because scientists have found about 3 times the amount of fresh water under the earth's crust compared to the amount of water in the oceans.
If the conditions mentioned in the previous paragraph are met then, I think 1000 billion people could live simultaneously and be well. Then people will live as long as trees (up to 1000 years), the youngest will die at 100 years old, and only at 100 years old will a sinner be cursed.
Can we reach everyone with the Good News?
In today's digital era of information technology, the Internet and satellite broadcasting, it is possible if all of us New Covenant saints roll up our sleeves and move from dreams to actions! The Good News of Salvation must be proclaimed once and for all as a testimony to all nations! Only then will there be an end to this era of chaos, wars, epidemics, persecution, suffering, injustice, great inequality, bottomless desires and immense famine!
Wonderful memories
When I look back on my years of study and work, as well as my free time, there were several times when I felt the clear guidance of the Holy Spirit to take the message of salvation to precisely those people whom He had already prepared in advance to be receptive.
This happened wherever I wandered, in Finland and abroad. The biggest obstacle was myself, because this body of flesh and blood of mine has been a real 'brake wagon'. Prayer and fasting often miraculously helped to subdue my body to the position of the donkey on which Adonai Yeshua was allowed to ride and take the Message of Salvation to many people.
Now, as an old man and with many illnesses, I can still focus on praying for all of them and reminding those who are still living their youth and peak years of what is most important in human life. That is a conscious walk in prayer in connection with Adonai Yeshua, guided by the Holy Spirit and the Word of the Living Bible.

P.S. 2 I have also prepared these studies in Finnish. They consist of selected Bible translations and include various hymns:
