Millennium Kingdom
1000 Year Reign of Christ on Earth
Compiled by WD Kemner January 2025
The End Times will begin with the signing of a Treaty between the Anti-christ and the nation of Israel guaranteeing Israel peace. This event marks the start of the Tribulation period that will last seven years. The Tribulation Period will be followed by the return of Jesus Christ. This will be His second coming.
The Second Coming will be to Cleanse the Earth of wickedness. Once this has completed the earth will have an era of peace that has never been seen. Christ will rule on earth. This period will last for a thousand years and has been called the Millennium Kingdom.
“…the God of Heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed…” Daniel 2:44
This document will list the verses that apply to that period.
A study of this period should start with a study of the Book of Daniel. Daniel’s interpretation of the dream of Nebuchadnezzar lists many nations to come after that time in history. The last one described is the establishment of God’s Kingdom on Earth.
Overview of the Time Period
Peaceful Kingdom in animal world, because the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord. Isaiah 11:6-9
No need of the Sun and Moon to provide light. There will be Longevity of Life. Isaiah 60:19-22
City of Tyre was once a central supply depot, it will once again exist and function as a supply depot. Isaiah 23:18
Bodies of those that sinned against God will be visible to everyone as a reminder. Isaiah 66:24
Missions will be going forth to declare God’s glory to those born during the Millennium. Isaiah 66:18-19
Outpourings of the Holy Spirit will occur everywhere. Joel 2:28-29

Why would the Holy Spirit have left after the Second Coming?

Highways of Peaceful Travel
“SPECIAL” Highways of travel at this time.
A remnant of Jews who are still in Assyria, will need passage home. An Egyptian river will be dried up to allow a highway just like it was in the day that they came up out of Egypt. Isaiah 11:15-16 and Isaiah 27:12-13
Travel between Assyria – Egypt – Israel Isaiah 19:23-25
“In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians. In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land: Whom the LORD of hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel mine inheritance.”
The Holy Highway called: “THE WAY OF HOLINESS” Isaiah 35:8-9
“And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein. No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there”
