Daniel - the Protestant interpretation

[JM]

Agree with this video or not, it was the historic understanding of Protestantism especially the Reformed and Lutheran churches.

I'm convinced more and more that ones millennial view is less important, a secondary issue, to one understanding of historicism, futurism and preterism.

If futurism is true Revelation is yet to happen, if preterism is true the events of Revelation have long since past. Revelation is not a revelation of Jesus Christ but a hidden prophecy trapped in symbols.

If we remain Gospel centered, focused on Christ and the preaching of Him ruling and reigning now, we must identify false preaching and the false Gospel. For God to speak to us now in prophecy it would make more sense for us to view Revelation from a historicist perspective.

Rambling.

I have used this video to show a Seventh Day Adventist the historical view of Daniel. They have an absurd understanding of the 2300 days in 8:14 that ended up being a failed prophesy in 1844 that actually launched the cult. Pray this will be used by God to open his eyes. Thanks.

I was friends with the local SDA minister in my area. We never got around to talking about Bible prophecy, just the Sabbath issue...he also stressed the importance of Ellen White as prophet.

The interpreting of Daniel has become convoluted in modern times. Dispensationalism and all forms of Futurism also have an absurd view of 70 weeks of Daniel as well.

Forgive me in advance brother, preterism is a non starter, are you of the belief in partial or full preterism?

Revelations is a heads up for things that will happen during the end times, no?

Plz forgive me brother but I'm typing on an iPhone so my responses may seem curt.

I disagree with preterism and futurism, both are counter eschatological schemes created by Jesuits after the Reformation. Futurism, of which Dispensationalism is a stream of, inserts a break in Daniel's 70 weeks pushing most of Rev. to the future. Both views were created to remove the identification of antichrist to either the past or the future. I posted a link a feel posts up where I quote Clerance Larkin, a Dispensational futurist, admitting it.

Thank you for patience.

From my twitter:

@JM_1689: Defined: "Historicism is the belief that Biblical prophecies...all apply to the developing history of Christianity..."

@JM_1689: LaHaye states that 28% of the Bible is prophecy. That means Dispensationalism is wrong about 28% of the Bible. ;-)

Nothing tempts one to practice eisegesis like dispensationalism. Don't believe me just look at YouTube
