" Please keep in mind that this topic is not limited to Judaism and Christianity and that this is not specifically about just those two religions. "

In reference to a merger with 'Messiah' I believe this topic is related to Millennialism.

Work required badly

edit

I feel there is a lot of work required quite badly on this page.

Firstly, the opening paragraph focuses solely on reform Judaism. What is with that? It is quite obvious that the Messianic Age applies to multiple religions, not just reform Judaism. Perhaps a section of comparative beliefs would be better?

The last paragraph is written rather poorly. This should maybe be the start of a comparitive section of various religions and their beliefs with regard to the topic.

The page as a whole is quite abysmal. Definitely not up to Wikipedia standards

Sadly, 10 years later, the page is still pretty terrible. Ashmoo (talk) 12:39, 20 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

When does a millenium begin/end?

edit

The article contains this text, "The seventh millennium perforce begins with the year 6000,...."

Actually, the 7th millennium begins at the end of the year 6000, or the first day of 6001. LarryWiki115 (talk) 17:18, 12 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Convergence criterion for the Kingdom of Heaven

edit

The Peaceable Kingdom is not described as a convergence criterion for the Kingdom of Heaven. --I'm late for my IPO on the NASDAQ (talk) 09:20, 25 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

According to v:Ethics/Life after death#The Peaceable Kingdom the land Canaan is associated with the Biblical Promised Land, which can be reinterpreted as a promised territory in which migrants find refuge and this then would metaphorically and applying the categorical imperative include heaven as a refuge for humanity for a live after death. According to the categorical imperative, of course, one should strive to provide refuge to migrants, especially during climate change, who may otherwise not survive in their state of origin, and thus in part satisfy the convergence criterion Peaceable Kingdom. --Manni R.
