The Year 1872
What happened in 1872?
The Beginning of the Millennium at 1872: (Quote from above)
“In this chapter we present the Bible evidence which indicates that six thousand years from the creation of Adam were complete with A.D. 1872; and hence that, since 1872 A.D., we are chronologically entered upon the seventh thousand or the Millennium—the forepart of which, the ‘Day of the Lord,’ the ‘day of trouble,’ is to witness the breaking into pieces of the kingdoms of this world and the establishment of the Kingdom of God under the whole heavens” The Time is at Hand. 1911. Page 33.

Thus the Word of God corrects the few slight errors which have crept into it by any means. And remember that those breaks occur in the period bridged effectually by the inspired testimony of the New Testament. So, then, whereas Usher dates A. D. I as the year 4005 from the creation of Adam, it really was, as we have shown, the year 4129, according to the Bible record, thus showing the year 1872 A. D. to be the year of the world 6000, and 1873 A. D. the commencement of the seventh thousand year period, the seventh millennium, or thousand-year day of earth's history. The Time is at Hand. 1911. Page 53-54.
C.T. Russell, the founder of the Jehovah's Witnesses believed that 1872 the beginning of the millennium and there was Bible evidence which indicates that six thousand years from creation of Adam were completed A.D. 1872.
