Matthew 24:22 says, "And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect's sake those days will be shortened." Jesus Christ will return to Earth to establish His Kingdom that will never fail, and it is the establishment of this Kingdom that will usher in 1,000 years of UNPARALLELED peace and prosperity. This is a time often referred to as "the Millennium". Just what is God's Millennial plan for planet earth?
