The Lord's Day
Everything is reconciled.
Christ’s return begins a thousand-year period rather than ending the story immediately. Deception is restrained, souls are taught in full spiritual awareness, records are opened, and the final release of Satan reveals who still chooses rebellion after understanding is no longer obscured.

Paul says that at the last trump all will be changed. Revelation 20 describes Satan bound for a thousand years, thrones and judgment, the dead standing before God, and Satan released for a little season afterward. Ezekiel’s closing chapters describe an ordered period centered on worship, teaching, and accountability.
How I understand it
I understand the Millennium—the Lord’s Day—as a period of discipline, education, and reconciliation under Christ. Flesh has ended, but not every unresolved soul has reached final judgment. The closing test is meaningful because each person chooses with full knowledge and without Satan’s earlier deception.
What you should examine
Trace the sequence within Revelation 20 rather than collapsing it into one event. Ask why Satan must be released after the thousand years and what purpose the intervening teaching serves. Compare the people, priests, nations, and worship described in Ezekiel with the conditions of the eternal state in Revelation 21.
