Well, this isn't a question i wanna answer 'cause... you know you will get the answer on other sites. But, since this issue is lifted that kids nowadays know revelation bible on internet -which is placed mostly for dramatic effects on the articles- more than in the bible, i think i wanna see what my fingers got for this. (Yeah i dont write good in english. look! I even mistype the word 'dont'). I am going to make this question simple.
Personally, the world never ends; at least for me. Seriously, the world is always renewed. The world had been broken by many kind of chaos and disasters. For human in past, they would see them as an Armaggedon or stuff like that. But, look! we are here and that means there weren't doomsday or any Armageddon. It was just a nature change. Yes, maybe we'll die in next disaster but that's all. There'd be no end of the world.
For instance Revelation 21 says: "Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more..." What does it mean ? It means that there will be another renew. But -maybe- this renew is gonna be the last renew untill The Day of Judgment be held or it's just an another evolution of humanity. So the world will still exist even when Jesus comes. It means there will be just something called as 'A Transition'.
The transition itself means the transition of age. When the transition comes from one age to the next one, there will be such an evolution. Something will go and something -or maybe someone - will come. Jesus in Matthew 28:20 said : "Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands i have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age." But what is an age ? Most people think that age is just divided years of a time. But it's completely wrong.
An age is the measurement approximately of 2.150 years vernal equinox (an equinox occurs when the plane of Earth's equator passes the center of the sun) requires to orbit from one zodiac constellation sign to the next one. Zodiac as we know is divided by twelve signs begun from Aries, followed by Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagitarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. However, astrological ages proceed in the opposite direction which means Aries follows Taurus, Taurus follows Gemini and so on. All these constellations mean it needs approximately 25.800 years for Solar System to revolve in revolution.
Let's look back of what Jesus said. He said He will always be with his disciples (and us too as His disciple; whose accept Him as a saviour) 'till the end of the age. There is no -even the another versions of bible don't think so- the end of the world. There is only will be the end of the age; the age where Jesus lived.
Jesus is considered lived in the Age of Pisces although the Age of Pisces was started as Roman Empire fell. Look, there was an evolution when new age came. An evolution that changed human race (of course there are more than one evolution as a new age comes; but that is just an example). The evidences of His existency in age of Pisces; which means fish, a water sign were proved by Himself as He calling the fishermen as diciples, being on the sea for several times, calming the storm at the sea, helping the disciples catch fish, performing miracle in feeding people with fish, walking on water, his baptism in the water, and His talk with Nicodemus about being born again by 'water and spirit'.
So, 'the end of the age' in Matthew 28 is the end of Pisces. After Pisces there will be the Age of Aquarius. Good news we are stepping in the age of Pisces, bad news because Aquarius is upon us. But, it isn't bad news anymore after we know that there will be even no Judgment Day in 'the end of the age'. The world is always renew and at the end as Revelation 21 had said the Heaven will be into - i like using 'into' word beside of 'down' - Earth; as beautiful as a bribe. The world will never be end.
The question is when does the Age of Aquarius begin ? Trust me you can find out on the net with that sentence and find nothing but calculation of the scientists. Of course because Matthew 24:36 says : "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." :p :p
But for me, the end of the world is like what written in Sketer Davis's song titled The End of The World; "It's ended when i lost your love." XD
