[

millennia
(
pl
)]
From:
Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
Millennium
a
thousand
years
;
the
name
given
to
the
era
mentioned
in
Rev
.
20:1-7.
Some
maintain
that
Christ
will
personally
appear
on
earth
for
the
purpose
of
establishing
his
kingdom
at
the
beginning
of
this
millennium
.
Those
holding
this
view
are
usually
called
"
millenarians
."
On
the
other
hand
,
it
is
maintained
,
more
in
accordance
with
the
teaching
of
Scripture
,
we
think
,
that
Christ's
second
advent
will
not
be
premillennial
,
and
that
the
right
conception
of
the
prospects
and
destiny
of
his
kingdom
is
that
which
is
taught
, e.g.,
in
the
parables
of
the
leaven
and
the
mustard-seed
.
The
triumph
of
the
gospel
,
it
is
held
,
must
be
looked
for
by
the
wider
and
more
efficient
operation
of
the
very
forces
that
are
now
at
work
in
extending
the
gospel
;
and
that
Christ
will
only
come
again
at
the
close
of
this
dispensation
to
judge
the
world
at
the
"
last
day
."
The
millennium
will
thus
precede
his
coming
.
