Basic Questions About the Millennium, Part 2: The Issue of Dispensational Premillennialism

The first part of this article on the Millennium dealt with various interpretations of the Millennium and argued—based on the text of Revelation—for premillenniaslism. However, this could still be understood as leaving open two options: historic premillennialism and dispensational premillennialism. This second part of the article will begin with a discussion of dispensational premillennialism and will move on to other important issues: the understanding of the two resurrections in Revelation 20, the nature of the Millennium, and the relevance of a biblical interpretation of the Millennium for believers today.
