The Great Day of Day of God’s Wrath and the End of the Millennium #3 Definitive Proof that the Millennium Ended in the First Century As we noted in our first article in this series, the Millennium is a study of great importance for understanding eschatology.

The Judgment of the Nations in AD 70
The Judgment of the Nations in AD 70 One of the most common objections to Covenant Eschatology is that the fall of Jerusalem was far too local of an event to qualify for the end of the age.
