The Millennium

The Millennium gets its name from the references in the Bible to a reign by Christ over the earth for a thousand years following the climactic battle of Armageddon at the end of the Tribulation. "Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years." (Revelations 20:6).  

This will be a period of blessing when peace shall reign, even in the animal kingdom - "The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox."  (Isaiah 11:6)  

When the earth will be restored to pristine fruitfulness - "Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt." (Amos 9:13) .  

When spiritual blessings will be poured out on all - "And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:" (Joel 2:28)
