We must understand that hell, where the soul/spirit of unbelievers goes right now is just a temporary place of punishment. All the souls/spirits now in hell will have resurrected bodies and they will face Christ in the Great White Throne Judgment (Revelation 20:11-15). They will be judged and be punished according to the gravity of the sins they have committed while living on earth and will be thrown into the lake of fire which is their permanent place of punishment for eternity.
Heaven is also a temporary place for believers. After the 7 years of tribulation, all people that are saved and are in heaven will come down to earth to rule the world for 1,000 years. Then after 1,000 years, God will destroy this present heaven and earth and create a new heaven and New Earth. The New Jerusalem will come down to that New Earth and that new earth will be the eternal dwelling place of all elect for eternity with the Trinity (Revelation 21:1-5).
