1. The Premillennial View is presented here. It states that following the tribulation, Christ will return to usher in the Millennium. At the close of the Millennium, Satan will be released, there will be a final battle, and then comes the Great White Throne Judgment (see below. 2. The Postmillennial View is that the Millennium precedes the Second Advent. Christ, remaining in heaven during the Millenium, will work through the church to bring an age of peace and prosperity. Following this Millennium, there will be a conflict between good and evil, and Christ will return to earth. Due to the horrors of world wars I and II, and the development of increasingly dangerous weaponry, this view has lost its popularity. The world is getting more dangerous, not more peaceful.
