14. Now let’s look at the 2300 days or years in Daniel 8:14 “And he said unto me, Unto _____ __________ and _________ ________ days; then shall the _________ be __________.” It does not give a beginning and ending period, but in Daniel 9:23-27 when the angel Gabriel came to explain it, because Daniel was praying for wisdom and understanding; we see the seventy weeks or years were allotted for the Jews.
15. Daniel 9:24 “_________ weeks are __________ upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.” determined = or means cut off.

70 Weeks this time ended with the stoning of Stephen. 490 Days or years
This Seventy Weeks were to be cut off from the 2300 day prophecy. Look at the chart. Cut off from what? The 2300 days. 490 of these years were given to the Jews as a nation. That leaves 1810 Years for the work of the gospel, until the sanctuary would be cleansed.

17. We will look at Daniel 7:25 As well as other text that talk about the same time prophecy. We have been studying some already on this text. Now we will put it in the line of time in which it happened. It was under pagan rule and later became Papal rule. Time, times, dividing of times.

All these text are making reference to the same period or time 1260 days or 42 prophetic months. In reading Daniel 7:23 – 25 you note that the fourth kingdom covered the whole earth, and ten horns came up out of
God’s people were persecuted for 1260 years. This was known as “The Dark Ages” or “Middle ages”. It began under Pagan rule and went into Papal rule. Matthew 24:21, 22. “For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those _________ should be ___________, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.” This speaks about this great Tribulation and the day would be shortened for the elect’s sake or no one would be left. The persecution of those days were shortened.
The little horn represents a system of religious power – of church – state = combination. It begin in 538 A.D. when Belisarius routed the Arian king of the Ostrogoths from
The message itself sheds light as to the time when this movement is to take place. It is declared to be a part of the "everlasting gospel;" and it announces the opening of the judgment. The message of salvation has been preached in all ages; but this message is a part of the gospel which could be proclaimed only in the last days, for only then would it be true that the hour of judgment had come. The prophecies present a succession of events leading down to the opening of the judgment. This is especially true of the book of Daniel. But that part of his prophecy which related to the last days, Daniel was bidden to close up and seal "to the time of the end." Not till we reach this time could a message concerning the judgment be proclaimed, based on the fulfillment of these prophecies. But at the time of the end, says the prophet, "many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased." Daniel 12:4.
The apostle Paul warned the church not to look for the coming of Christ in his day. "That day shall not come," he says, "except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed." 2 Thessalonians 2:3. Not till after the great apostasy, and the long period of the reign of the "man of sin," can we look for the advent of our Lord. The "man of sin," which is also styled "the mystery of iniquity," "the son of perdition," and "that wicked," represents the papacy, which, as foretold in prophecy, was to maintain its supremacy for 1260 years. This period ended in 1798. The coming of Christ could not take place before that time. Paul covers with his caution the whole of the Christian dispensation down to the year 1798. It is this side of that time that the message of Christ's second coming is to be proclaimed.
No such message has ever been given in past ages. Paul, as we have seen, did not preach it; he pointed his brethren into the then far-distant future for the coming of the Lord. The Reformers did not proclaim it. Martin Luther placed the judgment about three hundred years in the future from his day. But since 1798 the book of Daniel has been unsealed, knowledge of the prophecies has increased, and many have proclaimed the solemn message of the judgment near.
Like the great Reformation of the sixteenth century, the advent movement appeared in different countries of Christendom at the same time. In both Europe and
Great Controversy 356, 357
19. This message in Daniel 7:25 a lot took place in the 1260 years. There was much history that took place during this time. It was during this time a Pope was put on the throne and now they had church and state. There was much persecution of Christ followers. The Sabbath was changed to Sunday by The Pope. Idol worship came into the church and the worship of Mary. The Christian Church went under much change. Daniel 7:25 “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to _________ ________ and ________: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” God’s law was thought to be changed.
20. Notice in Daniel 7:26 what he said would take place, after these things in verse 25 Daniel 7:26 “But the ___________ shall _________, and they shall _________ _________ ________ ________, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.” God will some day do away with this system of worship.
21. Daniel 7:11 “I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the ___________ was _____________, and his body destroyed, and given to the _________ _________.” VERSE 26. “But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.” You can see it is talking about the Judgment and when Christ comes. He will destroy those who are a part of the beast power. This beast of Daniel 7:20 and 21. Who again will make war on God’s people and will do so until Christ comes.
| 9I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire. 10A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened. 11I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame. 12As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time. 13I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. 14And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed. DANIEL 7:9 - 14 |
