The year 2000 is called the Millennium because it happens to be the year when a century ends. After 2000, a new century will come.
The Millennium is a very rare year, because it only appears once every 1000 years, and people's life span is only over1000 years, so people who can witness the emergence of the Millennium are very lucky, so people also regard the Millennium as an auspicious year with a beautiful meaning.
The Millennium, also known as the Millennium, originated from Christian teachings. The earliest meaning can be extended to the Jewish expectation for the afterlife. The doctrine of the Millennium is contained in Chapter 20 of the Revelation of the New Testament: the Millennium is the second arrival of Christ, Satan is bound, the dead saints are resurrected, and they ascend to heaven with the living saints, and they will reign with Christ for a thousand years in heaven.
At the end of the Millennium, Christ, all saints and the new Holy City of Jerusalem will return to the earth. Those who lost their lives will be resurrected, and Satan will be released temporarily. After being released, Satan will gather all the wicked to attack the holy city of New Jerusalem, but failed. Finally, Satan, his followers and those evil people will be thrown into the lake of sulfur and fire. The year of Chen Geng is the first month of the lunar calendar, such as 1880, 1940, 2000...(60-year cycle). The so-called lunar calendar year, that is, trunks and branches are literally equivalent to trunks and branches. In ancient China, the sky was dominant and the earth was subordinate. The connection between the sky and the stem was called the heavenly stem, and the connection between the earth and the branch was called the earthly branch.
The historical interpretation of this statement is quite different. Some Christians believe that Christ will come first and then the Millennium will begin. This is the theory before the Millennium. Post-millennialism holds that first Christianity was accepted by the whole world, then the Millennium came, and finally Christ came back, the dead were resurrected, and the end of the world was judged. This theory was condemned by the Great Council of Ephesus in 43 1 year. Popular culture calls 2000 or 200 1 the Millennium.

Jesus obeyed the will of God the Father, died on the cross for sinners, and became a sin offering, replacing the unjust with the righteous, so that all those who believed in him were justified by his precious blood. According to the Bible, Christ rose from the dead on the third day, destroyed the devil in charge of death, ascended to heaven and plundered all his enemies. Now he sits at the right hand of God the Father. He is the only mediator between God and man. Only through him can believers enter the Father's presence.
