What is the Millenial Kingdom refereed to in revelations 20?

Revelation 20 says

>Satan will be bound for a thousand years

>The Martyrs will come back to life and rule with Christ for 1000 years & this is the first resurrection

>When the 1000 years are finished Satan will be released from his prison and will deceive the nations of the world once more

so it's a literal reign of Christ as king on earth with no satan around to mess around with people? Sort of like a pre-paradise before we enter the final paradise?

I think the key thing is that there hasn't been a thousand year devil-free period yet, so we're clearly not in that secondary deceptive phase.

Church tradition says it’s the current church on earth, and that Satan is “bound” because he can’t destroy the truth. However, it is possible that it might be literal.

I understand it as a metaphor when the entire human spirit will be free from any ploy of evil, filled with compassion, kindness and truth that even the vilest person sheds tears for the suffering of another. And then humanity prospers for generations, science advances so much that all diseases are cured, lifespawn is increased to great lenghts, space exploration and colonies, clean transportation, weather control etc.

Philosophy would advance for the unification of all rational thought with the wisdom of God, politics would be a literal burden to go into for the best and brightest to 'serve' the interest and well being of all…

Basically a utopia of utopias where Christ is Lord in each ours' spirit and character.

I don't know how God will do it, but I hope and pray it won't involve the utter annihilation of the world and miraculously remaking it nor even killing off a portion of humanity or anything that dire.

If there would be a mythical miracle, I hope God would fill every heart with his love and we would just come to understand His grace.

I don;t think Revelation will play out literally since ancient Israelites imagined the Messiah as a warmongering Imperial Solomon, but He came to us all as a poor, homeless David.

That makes me think God is more of a poet than we can ever understand.

A Japanese girl will rescue humanity from a global cataclysm and be recognized as the leader of the world. Under her leadership, the human race will become peaceful and immortal.

Satan is clearly running around deceiving nations though.

Christ ruling with the Martyrs sounds like the Church Triumphant in Heaven right now to me, after the Resurrection, Christ will be ruling with all the Elect, including the Martyrs.

No, it isn't. It's a heavenly reign that's occurring right now. Most of events of The Apocalypse happened in the 1st century, and there's no indication in the text that this reign would take place on earth. Christ Himself says the opposite in fact, that His Kingdom is not of this world. Additional clues are the fact that only some of the faithful are resurrected and that, were we to assume an earthly reign, then Satan could not possibly deceive a world where Christ already was quite present and quite known:

>Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom judgment was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony to Jesus and for the word of God, and who had not worshipped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life, and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 5 The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy is he who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and they shall reign with him a thousand years. 7 And when the thousand years are ended, Satan will be loosed from his prison 8* and will come out to deceive the nations which are at the four corners of the earth, that is, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle; their number is like the sand of the sea.

Funny, I hope and pray for just that.

I think the conclusion here is that we're BEFORE the 1000 year reign, AFTER Jesus Christ died..
