I'm not sure what you mean. As an example:
”For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth;
And the former things will not be remembered or come to mind" (Isaiah 65:17, ESV).
Sounds like annihilation and replacement.......I feel like you have this exact problem across a wide range of issues? Hence my notion that what you see has more to do with your own novel beliefs read in than what is actually there.
....ofc...that may just be a particularly bad example, and some other will better express your own beliefs in restoration. It's a big book, I'm sure we could find something.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
