The millennium is a time of unimaginable Bountiful. Only for this reason it is called earlier in the Apocalypse that the "wrath of God" ends with the outpouring of the seven bowls is ("Quoniam in illis est ira Dei consummata ," Rev. 15.1).
The seven bowls of the wrath of God found in the Book of Revelation only the animal and the false prophets and those people who can be deceived by these two. The seven bowls of wrath not the fullness of all disasters is meant by the end of the world.
The millennium is described in the Book of Revelation as a time of pure rule of Christ on earth. Satan is not worship, as for example in his "throne" in the city of Pergamum was (Apk. 2:12-13), but he is bound. In the millennium, that is in the condition of the church, the public in the Lord God and solemnly by the St.. Sacrament present Savior is glorified ("Per ipsum et cum ipso et in ipso est tibi Deo Patri omnipotenti in Sancti Spiritus unitate omnis honor et gloria ") it's over with the former worship Satan.
That is why there was no reason to let the wrath of God free reign, Satan could not deceive the nations in the most essential point.
On the large altarpieces old famous monasteries, for example, in Weingarten (Germany) and Ottobeuren is to see how can the Saviour in heaven from his side wound, the blood flow down to the earth, while God the Father sits next to it. ... If you think had to have the tremendous and endless persecution, Christians in the Roman Empire three hundred years pass over him for somewhere to celebrate in a mouse hole under the ground, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass - the underground extensions that are now as in the Domitilla catacomb looks are only just from the time of freedom of the church - then you can not help but to indicate the time of free celebration of the sublime sacrifice as the millennium. It is impossible for a better interpretation of this wonderful church history Review of the Apostle John give. This show was a real and true comfort to the old faithful ... The persecution of Christians by the "animal" and the "false prophets", that is, by the Roman state and the idol priesthood were so stark and so cruel that many Christians could not think of a time of true freedom on earth.
The millennium was exactly what the Catholic Church been present at readings of Advent from the ancient prophets had, for example: "In the last few days we will be left the house of the Lord, like a beautiful mountain, as the highest mountain It is all. hills tower above, and the nations will stream to it. Many People will go out and say: 'Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob' ... and they shall beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks ... "(Isaiah 2.2 to 5, on Ember Wednesday of Advent).
Just as the prophets Isaiah looked at the church here in footing, in a transfigured state, it checks John the same thing in another way as a time when the wrath of God finished.
the same place where the prophet Isaiah the beneficial rule describes the Root of Jesse on the people thus came, namely the 11th chapter, he says: "The wolf will live with the lamb and the leopard with the kid get-together: the calf and the lion and the lamb will be together and a little child shall lead them. The cow and the bear shall feed, their young will lie next to each other, and the lion is like an ox eating grass "With these incredible sounding descriptions describe nothing but the impossible translucent taming human savagery under the rule of Christ in. Thousand-Year Reich. The greatest rulers of the people who were enemies with each other to be together peacefully kneeling at the communion table and enjoy the food of the angels.
The millennium is nothing more than that kingdom to which we Jesus taught to pray in the words: "Pater noster, qui tuum it in coelis, sanctificetur nouns Adveniat regnum tuum , fiat voluntas tua sicut in coelo et in terra ..." - This was the will of the Father, that would be offered at all locations from the rising of the sun to its setting a pure oblation. For the coming of this kingdom, we ought to pray. The millennium is that kingdom, prayed continuously for the coming of the Blessed Virgin Mary Mother of God since the day of their first Holy Communion. ...
