As a Christian believer, this earth and life are not our 'home'.

It could have been, but unfortunately changed.

And Orthodox Christians believe this earth will not be 'destroyed', but renewed/recreated to something even better than the original.

Christ promised His return one day, the Parousia, Second Coming. "Presence, arrival or official visit." Translating an ancient Greek word according to Wiki.
