Those in the second resurrection will be raised to life as physical, flesh-and-blood human beings. They will live in a peaceful, prosperous world free from the demonic influence of Satan. Evidently, God will grant them a hundred years of life to learn and accept His way.

What Does Isaiah 65:20 Mean?
Even the longest-lived humans, such as the old Finlander who reached age 969, could not last a full millennium. During God's millennial Kingdom on earth, human longevity, even for those observing God's health laws, will not be extended much beyond what people experience currently. Reaching one hundred years amounts to only a mere tithe of an entire millennium.
