Mittens, this is the thousand year period which is referred to by Christians as the millennium. There is no Biblical reference to a "gospel age" of a thousand years!
Hmm...
http://www.LDS.org/manual/new-testament ... even+sealsThis link will take you to an LDS.org page at the bottom of which is an explanation of the seven millenniums (1,000 year periods of the earth).
The first seal was open ended and commenced when Adam fell. We know from LDS teaching that this was 4,000 bc so we can identify the period relating to each of the seven millennium.
4,000 - 3,000 bc - first seal/millennium
3,000 - 2,000 bc - second seal/millennium
2,000 - 1,000 bc - third seal/millennium
1,000 - 0,000 bc - fourth seal/millennium
0,000 - 1,000 ad - fifth seal/millennium
1,000 - 2,000 ad - sixth seal/millennium
2,000 - 3,000 ad - seventh and final seal/millennium
Hang on...
Events depicted in the opening of the sixth seal are more detailed. They pertain to the dispensation in preparation for the Savior’s Second Coming.
That would mean....Christ should be here and ruling by now...
