Daniel 12 serves not as a predictor to when Jesus will return, but as a road map for God’s last day generation to follow once the Abomination of Desolation becomes a reality. Adventists have viewed that Abomination as the National Sunday Law enacted in the United States. Ellen White one of the Church’s founders and believed to be a prophetic messenger whom the Lord used indicates that God’s people should “read and study the twelfth chapter of Daniel. It is a warning that we shall all need to understand before the time of the end.” (Ltr. 161, July 30, 1903) We obviously are living in the very time of the end and it would be beneficial for us as a people to be earnestly studying this chapter of Daniel and finding it’s application for our time. We can no longer see this elephant standing in the middle of Bible prophecy and ignore it any longer or find answers surrounding it from Adventism’s early pioneers from the 1840s. I urge you to read through my sermon booklet with an open mind. I have gleaned the information within it for over ten years from various sources.
The conclusions which I have come to are shared by a number of individuals I have studied with and we are open that some of the elements of discovery could be corrected, but that should not create fear in researching this passage and giving the findings in this sermon booklet an open mind. I believe the applications discovered may indeed be present truth for this time.
