““Premillennialism. Premillennialism is any belief that Christ will come before the “thousand years.” Premillennialists believe that at his coming Christ will institute a thousand-year reign (“golden age”) on the earth, after which he will institute the eternal state. In older writings, “premillennialism” is often called “chiliasm” from the Greek “chilioi” which means “thousand.” Premillennialists are divided into two main camps: historic premillennialists and dispensational premillennialists.””
