We had kind of started this on the processes of science thread but I felt was going off topic. There are some interesting concepts about how the new world will occur.
"In Zoroastrian eschatology, the world to come is the frashokereti, where the saoshyant will bring about a resurrection of the dead in the bodies they had before they died. This is followed by a last judgment. The yazatas Airyaman and Atar will melt the metal in the hills and mountains, and the molten metal will then flow across the earth like a river. All humankind—both the living and the resurrected dead—will be required to wade through that river, but for the righteous (ashavan) it will seem to be a river of warm milk, while the wicked will be burned. The river will then flow down to hell, where it will annihilate Angra Mainyu and the last vestiges of wickedness in the universe. The saoshyant is first mentioned as a savior in the Yashts written around 625 and 225 BCE ["
Fairly apocalyptic.. Here is Judaism.
There is no evidence of Jewish belief in a personal afterlife, with reward or punishment, until after 200 BC.[2]
Although modern Judaism still concentrates on the importance of HaOlam HaZeh ("this world"), HaOlam HaBa (העולם הבא) or the world to come is an important part of Jewish eschatology, the afterlife, also known as Olam haBa, Gan Eden (the Heavenly Garden of Eden) and Gehinom.[3][4][5]
According to the Talmud, any non-Jew who lives according to the Seven Laws of Noah is regarded as a Ger toshav (righteous gentile), and is assured of a place in the world to come, the final reward of the righteous.[6][7]
Trying compare this to the last one is a bit of a throw. Possibly how reincarnation works. A set of factors being something like a good death versus a bad death.
Here is Christian..
In Christianity, the phrase is found in the Nicene Creed (current Ecumenical version): "We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come."[9] It is also found in the King James Version of the New Testament at Matthew 12:32, Mark 10:30, Luke 18:30, Hebrews 2:5, Hebrews 6:5. Other related expressions are "age to come" which is typically found in more recent translations, Kingdom of God, Messianic Age, Millennial Age, Golden Age, The New Earth and New Jerusalem, and dispensation of the fulness of times and possibly also eternal life.
So again dead rising to bring about the new age. If reincarnation is a factor perhaps it is the cycle of one's who have been "dead" now rise (live again).
Here is Hindu..
In Hindu eschatology the current age is the Kali Yuga, a period of decline. Kalki will appear to purge all evil, beginning a golden age of Satya Yuga.
There have been a range of dates predicted, purportedly from different methods of calculation.[10] Pothuluru Veerabrahmendra, for example, wrote 400 years ago in his Divya Maha Kala Gnana, or Divine Knowledge of the Time, that Kalki would arrive when the moon, sun, Venus and Jupiter entered the same sign. This is not a rare occurrence and last happened in early 2012, passing without event.[11] The time of arrival of Kalki has not been consistently asserted by astrologers.[10]
The earliest copies of the Mahabharata that exist dates from 200 CE and is the first text to mention Kalki but was likely written in its final form around 400 CE. Kalki is also mentioned in the Vishnu Purana which has a contested date of composition ranging from 400 BCE to 1000 CE.
Again, compared it seems to be cleansing the "carnations" to bring about the new age "new incarnations" those as they once were.
Islamic next..
Iranian Shia twelve Imams belief hold before Last Judgment, Mahdi appears and defeats Al-Masih ad-Dajjal His rule will be paradise on earth, which will last for seventy years until his death, though other traditions state 7, 19, or 309 years.[12]
This seems to describe a clashing of world influence. Something we also seem to be dealing with in the living generations.
I also noted none of these mentioned a bridge.
