千禧年后论
在基督教末世论中,千禧年后论(postmillennialism)是对启示录20章的一种解释,认为基督再临发生在基督徒繁荣、占优势的千年王国之后。这种观点与 千禧年前论(premillennialism)相对,较小程度上与无千禧年论(amillennialism)相对。

虽然一部分千禧年后论者按照字面认为千年王国真的是一千年,但是大部分千禧年后论者认为一千年是一个象征,代表很长的时期(类似无千禧年论)。他们通常认为千年王国已经开始,这意味着一种不太明显、较少戏剧性的千年王国类型,而不是千禧年前论所认为的基督会突然回来。
千禧年后论教导说,撒但的势力将会在历史中随着神的国的扩展,而被逐渐击败,直到基督再临。千禧年后论拥护善逐渐战胜邪恶,自认为是乐观主义者(optimillennialists),与悲观的(pessimillennial)的千禧年前论者和无千禧年论者不同。
许多千禧年后论者支持某种形式的末世预言实现论(preterism),认为圣经中许多末日预言已经应验。
