It's all based on The Book of Revelation that was canonized into the Christian Bible.
The new creation is referred to (allegorically) as the New Jerusalem. The New Jerusalem is prophesied / promised to be ruled-over benevolently by Christ Jesus, rather than Satan. No strife or nastiness for it's entire duration.
Only a select few get resurrected directly to the New Jerusalem, all other saved souls have to await resurrection on the final judgement day, at which point they enter heaven.
The unsaved souls are resurrected, and discarded by the Creator into Gehenna, the rubbish burning pit for all eternity.
