It si told somewhere (in the Unfinishes Tale IIRC), that Earendil will play a great part in the battle at the end of the world (the Dagor Dagorath). Morgoth will try and succeed in breaking through the Gates of Night from the Void into Ea. At that same moment, Earendil will descend upon him from the high skies he's flying in and will cause Morgoth to flee to Arda, where he will be beaten by Tulkas (or Eru?) and Turin. This is prophesised in the socalled Second Prophesy of Mandos.
