Ever since I was a child, I seem to remember people saying, that the bible states, "one day, all life on Earth will end."
But when I read the book of Revelation, to me it states, that in the end there will be a new Earth, with no more death, mourning, crying, or pain.
The following was taken from biblegateway.com, bellow is a link,

Revelation 21
New International Version (NIV)
(The following is only part, of Revelation 21.)
A New Heaven and a New Earth
21 Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,”for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
5 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”
6 He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life. 7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children. 8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars —they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”
The above does talk about there no longer being a sea. And in verse not posted above, it says "the city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it."
But the book of Revelation, speaks of this new place as being, (the Holy City, of Jerusalem.). It also describes the new city with measurements.
And it says, "there will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."
It does state that, the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars —they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”
But it says (nothing) about the good people (Gods people) being taken off Earth.
To me Revelation clearly states that, all life on Earth will (not) end, but rather it will be a new world. And in this new world, there is no more death, mourning, crying, or pain.
Were do people get the idea that the bible says, all life on Earth will end someday?
