The Reign of the Righteous: Those who remained faithful and did not worship the beast are raised in the "first resurrection" and reign in peace and justice for 1,000 years (Rev 20:4–6).
The Millennial Reign (Revelation 20:1–7)


The Millennium is the 1,000-year era of Christ's reign described in Revelation 20, serving as the bridge between the defeat of earthly powers and the final judgment.


Chronological Stages
  1. The Binding of Satan (Rev. 20:1–3)An angel descends with a great chain, binds Satan, and casts him into the Abyss for 1,000 years, preventing him from deceiving the nations during this era.
  2. The Reign of the Righteous (Rev. 20:4–6) Faithful believers and martyrs are raised in the first resurrection to rule and reign with Christ in an era characterized by global peace, justice, and restoration.
  3. The Final Rebellion & Defeat (Rev. 20:7–10)At the end of the millennium, Satan is released for a short time to test the nations. He gathers a vast multitude (Gog and Magog) to besiege the beloved city. Before battle begins, fire descends from heaven to consume the rebellion, and Satan is cast permanently into the Lake of Fire.
  4. The Great White Throne Judgment (Rev. 20:11–15)The earth and sky flee away, leading directly into the final judgment of the dead and the ushering in of the New Heavens and New Earth (Rev. 21).
