-TWELVE-TheHUNDRED AND SIXTY DAY . 41say we may understand prophecy when itisfulfilled. Yet whobelieves this, forty-threeyears after it has all been fulfilled? I amtruly astonished at the unbelief and blindnessof professed Christians at the presentday.same unbelief which was manifestedat Christ's first coming, is as much ifnot more visible in professors'now thanthen.Take heed; if God sparednot the naturalbranches, how will he spare those who livein the gospel day?Thus, then, has this little hom of Danielcome and strutted out its short space of time,times, and a half; but his dominion is takenaway. And Paul's "man of sin," who wasthen in the future, has been revealed; hehas wickedly exalted himself above all thatis called God; he has set in the temple ofGod; has been showing himself that he wasGod; but his proud looks have been humbled,his high titles have come down, he isno more a god, and the hectic fever hasbleached his cheek, and his consumptivevoice shows him on his decline.How canwehelp believing?But We have another mystery to explore,of thesame time as the former; it is that,which by Paul is called the "mystery of iniquity,"which did already work. It is whatDaniel calls the " daily sacrifice," meaningthe "daily abominationz" this, too, is tocontinue a time, times, and a half. See`4*
