What is the Millennium?
Rev.20:4 (ESV) Blessed and holy is the one who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and they will reign with him for a thousand years.
​
The millennium is the term adopted by the church to describe the rule of Christ mentioned in Revelation 20. John employs the idea of one thousand years, but we have already acknowledged the images in Revelation are figurative and the numbers have meaning according to Old Covenant numerology. The Hebrew connotation for one thousand points to a vast number that can scarcely be counted. Earlier we alluded to Psalm 50, which assures us God opens the cattle on a thousand hills. He owns them all, but that figurative number implies an infinite scale.
​
Although some people insist this is a futuristic political reign that takes place after the meltdown, when God sets up a new earth, the Bible emphatically teaches Christ is reigning now. One of my favorite texts is the Great Commission, familiar to many: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age." We most commonly overlook the basis for that command, found in the previous verse. "And Jesus came and said to them, 'All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.'" (Matt. 28:18)
​
Shortly after the resurrection, when Christ gave marching orders to the church, he had already been granted all authority in heaven and on earth. What's left to give after that? Nothing. Christ began his reign with the resurrection.
