Yes, 2 Peter 3 teaches that the present heavens and earth will be destroyed by fire, to be replaced by new heavens and a new earth.
According to 2 Peter 3:10, the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and the heavens will pass away with a great noise, the elements will melt with fervent heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up. Verse 13 then promises new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Les Feldick connects this to the removal of the old cursed planet after the 1,000-year Kingdom and the beginning of the eternal state.
2 Peter 3:10 — Describes the day of the Lord coming as a thief and the burning up of the heavens, elements, and earth.
2 Peter 3:13 — Promises the new heavens and new earth that follow the destruction of the present creation.
2 Peter 3:10 states plainly: “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.” The passage describes a sudden and total destruction of the present world—the heavens, the physical elements, the earth, and everything that has been made on it. Verse 11 draws the practical response: “Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness.” Verse 12 repeats the same dissolution, saying the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved and the elements shall melt with fervent heat. Yet the chapter does not end with destruction. Verse 13 gives the hope: “Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.”
Les Feldick teaches that 2 Peter 3 describes the end of the old creation after the 1,000-year Kingdom. He points out that this old planet has been under the curse for 7,000 years; although the Millennium is relatively free from the curse, the curse is still present at the end when Satan is released. So the old planet is evidently going to be removed (Clip 0). He identifies the “day of the Lord” in 2 Peter 3 as running from the beginning of the Tribulation all the way into eternity (Clip 1). Les then describes the destruction as the old world and universe being melted down and dissolved, disappearing entirely, followed by new heavens and a new earth (Clip 2). He also says the Kingdom will be interrupted and lifted off the planet long enough for a whole new planet to come on the scene; this new heavens and new earth will be a carbon copy of the Kingdom, and eternity is spent in a Kingdom on a new earth, not floating on clouds (Clip 3).
Scripture says the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in that day the heavens pass away with a great noise, the elements melt with fervent heat, and the earth and its works are burned up (2 Peter 3:10). Les explains that the day of the Lord begins with the onset of the Tribulation and continues all the way through the Millennium until we go into eternity.
Les sees the old planet as having been plagued by the curse for 7,000 years. Even though the thousand-year reign is relatively free of the curse, the curse is still present at the end when Satan is released again, so this old planet is evidently going to be removed (Clip 0). He also says the old world and universe are going to be melted down and dissolve, so everything as we now see it will totally disappear (Clip 2).
Scripture promises new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness (2 Peter 3:13). Les says the Kingdom will be lifted off the planet long enough for a whole new planet to come on the scene. The new heavens and new earth will be a carbon copy of the Kingdom and will be the place of eternity (Clip 3).
The Old Planet Removed
Les explains that since the old planet has been under the curse for 7,000 years—and because the curse appears again when Satan is released—the old earth is evidently going to be removed and replaced by the new heaven and new earth.
The Day of the Lord in 2 Peter 3
Les quotes 2 Peter 3 and says the day of the Lord covers everything from the beginning of the Tribulation through eternity, when the heavens pass away, elements melt, and the earth and its works are burned up.
The Universe Melted Down
Les teaches that the old world and universe will be melted down and dissolved, disappearing completely—but the end result is new heavens and a new earth.
New Heaven and New Earth
Les says the Kingdom is interrupted and lifted off the planet so a whole new planet can appear; the new heavens and earth are a carbon copy of the Kingdom, and eternity is lived in a Kingdom on a new earth.
What Happens When God's Wrath Finally Begins — Revelation 6
The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof, because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant. Now verse 6, and watch this carefully. Verse 6. Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth. Remember what I said? This whole reason for the Tribulation is to pay off the curse. It's going to be delivered from the curse. The earth is.
What Happens When God's Wrath Finally Begins — Revelation 6
This is exactly why Jesus said what He said, that to those who are fortunate enough to have come through this whole seven years, they will see the light at the end of the tunnel. Now you've got Isaiah 24, and you can just begin at verse 1. We'll run off rather lightly here, and for sake of time behold, the Lord maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down.
Revelation 18 & Daniel 2: The Fall of Babylon Explained
They still use wind to separate it, it hasn't changed a bit. And so this is the picture that these nations of the world, these great empires and all that remains of them will just blow away like the chaff of a threshing floor. What a concept! And I think this is what's really built in then to the closing verses of the book of Daniel where Daniel is told to wait 75 days.

But as we see the things of the world that are taking place, and the appearance now of globalism in all of its forms and shapes, and global religion, and global economies, and global government, we know that this is a sure sign that we're getting very close to the appearance of the Antichrist who will be the world ruler under that global environment.
2 Peter 3:10: But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

2 Peter 3:13: Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
Promises the new heavens and new earth that follow the destruction.
Yes. 2 Peter 3:10 says the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, the elements shall melt with fervent heat, and the earth and the works therein shall be burned up. Les Feldick sees this as the old planet being removed after 7,000 years of the curse.
According to 2 Peter 3:13, believers look for new heavens and a new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness. Les teaches this new earth is a carbon copy of the Kingdom and the place where eternity is spent in a Kingdom.
Les says the day of the Lord begins with the onset of the Tribulation and continues all the way through the Millennium until we go into eternity.
