Premillennial advent; Christ returns before millennium

SDA affirms premillennial interpretation foundational to eschatology. Christ literally returns before thousand-year period. At coming righteous caught away; Satan bound unable to deceive.\n\nDuring millennium wicked remain dead and righteous live with Christ in heaven. At thousand years end Satan loosed wicked resurrected then destroyed. Premillennial interpretation consistent with Adventist Christ return imminence.
