Towards Eternity

Papal Rome declared the "daily" to be the daily mass and Eucharist, which had been "taken away" by the European reformers in the Protestant separation from Rome.
Today, many theologians speculate that the "daily taken away" refers to the ministry of Christ, or The True Sabbath, or The Covenant, or The Laws of God, or Probationary Time. Why so much confusion?

III. The Words, "Daily Taken Away" Were Closed Up and Sealed Until the Endtime.

The Bible declares that the "words" regarding the timelines of Dan. 12:7-12 were "closed up and sealed." Dan. 12:9. All through the centuries, they were to remain a mystery until the endtime. Man could not prematurely pry open their meaning. The full meaning was reserved for the last generation.

"And he said, Go thy way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end." Dan. 12:9

IV. The Word, "Daily" is the KEY to Understand the Three Timelines of Daniel 12.

Not until the endtime, would the "daily…taken away" be clearly defined. Why? Because the "daily…taken away" is the key which unlocks the meaning of the three timelines, enabling the last generation to understand the very warning they will need to prepare them for the final crisis. If the "daily…taken away" had been understood before its time, the people of God would have given a premature warning completely inappropriate for that time.

V. The 1800 Awakening Expositors Began to Unlock the "Daily…Taken Away."

Not until the 1800 Awakening in Europe and America, were the words, "daily…taken away" given correct meaning, They began the process of unlocking the "puzzle." Those who were studying the 2300 day-year timeline of Dan. 8:14, put aside all past speculation, and permitted the Bible to be its own expositor so that they had the "correct view"!
