  1. The Millennium What Does the Bible Teach? Lesson 1 The Millennium – Is It Christian?

  2. What is the Millenium? • It comes from two Latin words that mean “one thousand” and “year” • Jesus will physically reign on earth for 1000 years • The modern day Jews and some divisions of Christianity are hoping for millennial kingdom

  3. When will the Millennium start? • 1836 – Johann Bengel • 3/21/1843 – William Miller • 1874 & 1914 – Charles Russel • Deuteronomy 18:22 If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the LORD does not take place or come true, that is a message the LORD has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously. Do not be afraid of him.

  4. What does God say about date setting? • What will be the sign of your coming and the end of the age? • Matthew 24:31 36 “No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark;

  5. 39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 40 Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. 41 Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left. 42“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him. 45 “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time?

  6. 46 It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns. 47 I tell you the truth, he will put him in charge of all his possessions. 48 But suppose that servant is wicked and says to himself, ‘My master is staying away a long time,’ 49 and he then begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards. 50 The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of. 51 He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

  7. What does God say about date setting? • What does Jesus say about date setting? • If a Bible teacher claims to have figured out the date of Christ’s return, what do we know about that person? • What should we do when we recognize a false prophet?

  8. What should we do when we recognize a false prophet? • Matthew 7:15, 16 15 Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 16 By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? • Romans 16:17 17 I urge you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them.

  9. What does God say about date setting? • Why has the Lord delayed his return as long as he has? • 2 Peter 3:9 9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

  10. What does God say about date setting? • What is God’s wisdom in not revealing to us the date for the end of the world? • Matthew 24:42 Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. • 1 Corinthians 15:13 If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised.

  11. What is God’s wisdom in not revealing to us the date for the end of the world? • Colossians 4:2 Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. • 1 Peter 4:7 The end of all things is near. Therefore be clear minded and self-controlled so that you can pray.

  12. What does God say about date setting? • How can we always be ready for Christ’s return (or our death), even though we don’t know when it will be? • John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

  13. Mark 16:16 • Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.
