Starting with the last question first, the LDS Church will continue to function during the Millenium. It is a preparatory Gospel, to bring men out of the telestial, through the terrestrial, and to the gate of the celestial. There will be many on the earth living in a terrestrial state during the millenium. The LDS Church will serve as a guide and teacher, sort of like a temple prep course. After all, that's all it was ever intended to be.

D&C 13:1
Upon you my fellow servants, in the name of Messiah I confer the Priesthood of Aaron, which holds the keys of the ministering of angels, and of the gospel of repentance, and of baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; and this shall never be taken again from the earth, until the sons of Levi do offer again an offering unto the Lord in righteousness.


I have asked church leaders half a dozen times over the years what the last part means, and they always say it means the Aaronic priesthood won't be taken from the earth. Ever. Yet as I studied the scriptures more, I find a time prophesied in the future when the Sons of Levi will resume animal sacrifice near the temple at Jerusalem. By the time this happens, the following will have already occurred:
144,000 bring countless host into the Church of the Firstborn
WW3, WW4, World Wide Plague
Build Zion, 10 Tribes Return, 2 Prophets in Jerusalem
144,000 travel to Jerusalem to rebuild Israel
Reign of the Prince of Peace, King David

Right about there, in the progression, before Jesus returns, but after the Church of the Firstborn has millions upon the earth for several years (5 to 40). Then we find the first opportunity to fulfill the scripture and have the Aaronic Priesthood return to it's proper place, as only among the sons of Aaron, the tribe of Levi. At that day, they alone will possess the Aaronic Priesthood. It will be taken from the rest of the earth, and returned to its proper place, or RESTORED.
