Joseph said to Judge Adams that christ & the Resurrected saints will reign over the earth, but not dwell on the earth visit it when go they please or when necessary to govern it. There will be wicked men <on> the earth during the 1000 years. The heathen nations who will not come up to worship will be destroyed. Journal, December 1842–June 1844; Book 1, 21 December 1842–10 March 1843, 18-19, josephsmithpapers.org. ISH

By the Saints refusing to be led by the influences of Satan and not yielding to his seductive temptations, he is virtually bound so far as they are concerned; and, when the head of the family can attain unto this power and persuade his wife and family to do likewise, the power of Satan will be bound in that habitation, and the Millennium will have commenced in that household.

Taken together, these concepts mean that wickedness that is telestial in nature, wickedness that consists of living after the manner of the world, that wickedness which is carnal, sensual, and devilish by nature – all such shall cease. Those who so live will be destroyed. They are the tares of the earth. Spencer W. Kimball and Edward L. Kimball, The Teachings of Spencer W. Kimball [1982], 172. Credit: Tyler Martin (email)

Quote
Truly the millennial era is the age of salvation. It has been established by the Lord to save souls. Truly he shall send to earth during that blessed period those who earned the right, by faith and devotion in the premortal life, to receive their mortal probation in a day of peace and righteousness. It is not unreasonable to suppose that more people will live on earth during the millennial era than in all the six millenniums that preceded it combined. And all those who live on the new earth with its new heavens shall be saved. The Lord be praised for his goodness and grace.
Elder Bruce R. McConkie
