Amillennialism is a doctrine which maintains that the millennial kingdom referred to in Revelation 20:1-6 is not an entirely future literal "1000 year" reign of Christ on earth. Hence the name a-millennial, with a- being a negative prefix suggesting no millennium. However, rather than believing in no millennial age, the amillennialist contends that the period described in Revelation 20 was inaugurated at Christ's resurrection and will continue until his Second Coming, and is in fact, the church age. For this reason, amillennialists sometimes argue that an alternative name like realised millennialists would be more accurate.
