What wasis the Millenial Reign?

  • As a former Baptist, I have lots of Judaized remnants left over in my mind.  

    For example, here's some abandoned Protestant thoughts on the end of the world!

    -Yaay, the Rapture!
    -the 7-Year reign of the Anti-Christ (three years of happiness, three years of Tribulation)
    -war against the Anti-Christ at the Valley of Armageddon, blood up to the horses' girdle!  
    -Jesus returns in the clouds with His white horses and his holy weapons to finally kill the Anti-Christ
    -1000-year Millenial Reign!  Praise Jesus!  New Jerusalem, and all that!
    -Sometime after that, the Earth melts.  The stars melt.  Your face melts.  


    Anyway, I'm beyond that at this point in my life.  Now, I've matured to believe in the Three Days of Darkness, when demons prowl outside, knock on your door, and kill you instantly, unless you cower in your house with your blessed candles!  What strides I've taken!

    Well, anyway.  

    Lately, I've been reading E. Michael Jones' Jєωιѕн Revolutionary Spirit.  It occurs to me that we Christians had a pretty good deal from about Constantine I around 300 AD until the late 1300s, right around the time after Spain either had Jєωs convert, or expelled them.  Shortly after that, in the 1400s, Jєωs really spread their influences throughout Europe and began the troubles for Christendom all over again--and soon we shall likely experience life pre-300AD.

    So, with that in mind:

    Is the year from 300AD until 1300AD the Millenial Reign?

    I could swear that I heard or read somewhere that a doctor of the Church stated that the Millenial Reign has already happened.

  • From my understanding, the millennium or 1000 years is the entire NT era.  It began the day Christ died and bound the strong man (the devil) and despoiled him of his goods (the souls that were in his grip).   It will conclude at the last trumpet blast when God will descend from heaven with a shout.  The Church has rejected all forms of millennialism and adopted the interpretation of St. Augustine.
    My conscience compels me to make this disclaimer lest God judges me partly culpable for the errors and heresy promoted on this forum... For the record I support neither Sedevacantism or the SSPX.  I do not define myself as either a traditionalist or Novus

  • You can read St. Augustine's teaching on this topic in his great work the "The City of God",  book XX. 5-7.  Here is a link.

    http://www.newadvent.org/fathers/120120.htm

    This video explains the Catholic Church's teaching on the true meaning of the millennium.  Hope this helps.
