Many people are vaguely aware that the Bible talks about a time called
the Millennium, but they aren't quite sure what that means. What were
the biblical prophets talking about? Is this time only a nice idea, a prophetic
flight of fancy? Or is it a sure promise from our Creator, a central
theme of the Bible and beacon of hope for mankind in these dark days?
