| | Millennialism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Millennialism (or chiliasm), from millennium, which literally means "thousand years", is primarily a belief expressed in some Christian denominations, and literature, that there will be a Golden Age or Paradise on Earth where "Christ will reign" prior to the final judgment and future eternal state, primarily derived from the book of Revelation 20:1-6. |  | | Millennial social movements need not be religious, but they must have a vision of an apocalypse that can be utopian or distopian. |  | | It was believed that the Age of the Holy Spirit would begin at around 1260, and that from then on all believers would be living as monks, mystically transfigured and full of praise for God, for a thousand years until Judgement Day would put an end to the history of our planet. |

 | | B. Millennialism (Chiliasm) was not the predominant view in the early church. |  | | Millennialism teaches that the entire territory promised to Abraham has not been fully possessed by his descendants, that the Jews are to return to their homeland, and that they will be set apart and saved during Christ's earthly rule. |  | | B. Millennialism is a teaching about the "thousand years" of Revelation 20:3-7 which is further explained in section V, C of this outline. |

 | | Millennial beliefs are also an important part of the theology of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, better known as Mormonism. |  | | The religious group's founder, Charles Taze Russell, declared that the fulfillment of Christ's millennial kingdom would be completed only after the foreordained destruction of nations, governments, churches, and world leaders, all of which Russell considered representations of Satan's rule. |  | | In the new age brought in by the acceptance of Christianity as the main religion of the Roman Empire it was Augustine, Bishop of Hippo, who articulated the amillennial view which dominated Western Christian thought during the Middle Ages. |

| | MILLENNIALISM (MILLENARIANISM, CHILIASM) |
 | | By far the most powerful non-western millennial tradition is found in Buddhism, with the Pure Land traditions and the expectation of the Matreya Buddha, a kind of messianic final incarnation of the Buddha. |  | | Nor was the 17th century limited to Christian millennialism: 1666 saw the climax of the most widespread millennial movement in the history of Judaism, with the career of Shabbetai Zvi, whose messianic message ignited communities in both Muslim and Christian lands (Sholem). |  | | At its origins, millennialism offers a concrete version of the fundamental eschatological belief that at the "end of time" God will judge the living and the [resurrected] dead. |

| | MILLENNIALISM IN THE EARLY CHURCH |
 | | One of the most striking features in the eschatology of the post-apostolic age is the prominent millennialism, or the belief in a visible reign of Christ on earth with the saints for a thousand years, followed by the general resurrection and judgment. |  | | Papias, bishop of Hierapolis in Phrygia in the early second century, was believed to have been a pupil of John and a companion of Polycarp. |  | | Dionysius' first book was directed against an overly materialistic conception of the kingdom of God; the second argued that John was the author of the Revelation as justification for finding a deeper, spiritual meaning behind the thousand year reign of Revelation 20 and 21 (Eusebius, EH 7.24.1-3; 25.2-5). |

 | | Congregations that are judged fit, Cotton explains, "shall have their part in Christ, and reigne with him for the space of a thousand yeeres in the government of the Church on earth' (11). |  | | American Puritans based this optimism on their perception of England's imminent fall, their appropriation of the modern Israel type, their acceptance of a specific covenant with God that included significant last-days responsibilities, and, most important of all, their belief that they were making rapid progress toward achieving the complete purification of church and state. |  | | If no earthly gathering of churches is sufficiently purified, however, the millennial nation will be shaped by the hand of God and populated by those scattered saints who were allowed to pass individually into the millennium. |

| | Excerpts: As a Thief in the Night |
 | | Focusing on millennialism as the impetus for Mormon separatist behavior, this study examines the near unanimity of Mormon belief in the establishment of God's separate kingdom on earth, with his righteous servants awaiting deliverance from their enemies at Christ's return. |  | | This Mormon millennial world view, with its goal of separating the Saints from non-Mormon Babylon, continued until the church's capitulation near the beginning of the twentieth century. |  | | In placing Mormon eschatology within the greater context of nineteenth-century American millennialism, the historiography of Mormonism has focused primarily on the pre-1850 period or has stressed that millennialism was but part of the continuity of Mormon thought from the early days to the present. |

| | The Making of Transmillennialism |
 | | Transmillennialism -- the belief that the millennial reign of Christ brought about the change, or transformation of the ages, from the Old to the New Covenant in A.D. Also known as covenant eschatology, or a fulfilled view of redemption. |  | | Emerging from the Churches of Christ, it spread to the Reformed Presbyterian world in the late '80s and crossed a multitude of confessional lines, among both high and low churches in the '90s. |  | | King theorized that the Gospels, Epistles and Book of Revelation spoke to the climax of the Kingdom in C.E. 70 as the restoration of Israel in Christ, preceded by the Tribulation, capped by the Parousia, last Judgment and spiritual resurrection of the dead. |

 | | The word found in Rev. 20:1-7 is from "chilioi," which means "a thousand." The concept of millennialism was originally known as Chiliasm, and when you search historical records, you will find the ancients speaking of the "chiliad" or the time mentioned in Rev. 20:1-7. |  | | The basis for such beliefs can be traced back to the time before Christ, and that to heathen religions. |  | | The word for thousand appears in these verses six times, and from these verses whole systems of doctrines have arisen, which are known as Millennialism. |

| | Why 2K? - The Biblical Roots of Millennialism |
 | | If the millennial reign of Christ described in Revelation 20 is a final seventh millennium following six previous ones and Jesus is born at the close of the fourth millennium (based on the standard chronology of the Hebrew Bible), then the period of 2,000 years for an "age of the Messiah" is implicit. |  | | These rabbis did not believe Jesus was the Messiah, yet it is their schemegiving biblical history a chronological logicthat became, in the hands of Christians, a powerful concept culminating in Jesus Christ. |  | | Among Christians, millenarianism refers specifically to a "millennial reign of Christ" and more generally to any utopian view of a transformed New Age. |

 | | Some prefer "Gospel Age Millennialism" or (as in my title) "Realized Millennialism." The basic idea here is that the "thousand years" described in Revelation 20 is figurative of Christ's spiritual reign in this Gospel Age -- i.e., now. |  | | In fact, such a notion is ruled out by placing the destruction of this earth and the creation of the new earth within the same time-frame as the Second Coming. |  | | It's not as if the OT prophets and the NT Apostles simply "didn't mention" the millennial kingdom, but rather in several places it is positively excluded from the entire end-times scenario! |

(1-4). |  | | Millennialism informs both Coleridges' Religious Musings and Pantisocracy, and appears to be one of the motivating ideologies inspiring his American utopian commune with Robert Southey in 1794, Pantisocracy. |  | | The refinement of their loco-descriptive and conversational poetic style, after Coleridge visited the Wordsworths at Racedown in June 1797, set the tone of their mission for poetry to heighten an awareness of Nature and God, and consequently, change society. |
