I believe the "age that was ending" ended. The age that was to come - was the "gospel age" These ages are in the here and now. The entrance into heaven is now made by the work of Christ So I would have to say that there is a "change" in the eternal states as well. I do however think this is it. I believe that God expects the Kingdom of Christ to spread throughout the world like leaven. I do not expect a time on earth when evil is completely gone. I am not a J.W. :-) Isaiah 65:20 There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days; for the child shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed. Here Isaiah predicts a time of blessing - but as you can see death of the body is still spoken of. Isaiah speaks of a restored "long life" but not eternal life. Actually there is a very good case presented that physical death was not a part of the curse of sin at all and actually always "expected" but that subject is just too ground into people's minds to discuss rationally.
