As there has been AMI still is great
deal Of talk and unnecessary alarms o!
this vain worlds coming TO an end be-
tween now and the 2IsI day Of March next,
in accordance with the prophecies Of one
WiI!inm Miller. have pernsed several
books. aud more especially The book Of
Daniel, and as believe the calculations
made are nearly correct. | send you a
copy of them for your perusal and medi-
inii0n.
The time appointed IN make an eGd OF
.transgressinn, aud Ia bring in an everlasl
ins righteousness with the rise aud fall Of
Anti.c christ, aud the false prophcI, or The
Millennium, being calculation taken from
reading the prophecy Of Daniel aud The
Revelations. In reading Of The book of
Daniel, find there was $500 days made
mcu,;on OF. which dpys. was to be accom-
p!ishc3 or fulfilled in order TO make an end
of ,ranscressiun. and to bring in an ever
lasting righteousness. Then from The time
that the decree went forth 10 restore and
rebuild Jcru salem, there was 200 weeks
or 400 days determined upon the Jews,
or Daniels people. q. tho end Of which
time they were 10 cease TO exis, as na-
lion. Daniel likewise makes mention Of
time. aud the dividing of time; with
also 1899 days also 1885. And ia the
Revelations, | finsi The times again spoken
OF, and forty and two. months, and 1900
days. which is the same with the 'imcs.or
the ~ months there mentioned. So, then,
ihcse are the numbers from. .whichl make
my calculations. to Wit, 2300 days, 400
days. 900 DAYS, 1885 days, 1861 days.
From the time the decree -scni> forth TO
restore aud rebuild Jerusalem, The Jews
existed no more than 490 days orzycars,
which ended in the year:af our; Lord 20.
n,Jerusaem was taken aud tho tenn
pie destroyed by Titus. the Roman gene'-
al, under The reign of his father Vespasian,
the Emperor of Rome. The Jews were
then dispcrsed aud ceased To exist as ma
tiou.-The,cfore take 20 from 400 which
leaves 400. then take 420 from 2300,
and ] find il leave 1880. the year OF our
Lord when Anli.chrisl and his false proph-
ct, or man of sin, shall be destroyed. when
sin mus, cease and lransgression and an
everlasting righteousness be brought in.
Now popery AnIi.christ. or the man Of
sin, was TO continue 1885 days, bu, 10 loso
the greatest part of his ascendency. power
ond authority in 1890 days from his rise.
Then take loo from 1885. AID i, leaves
as days or years, which will he employed
in wars aud conmotions between truth
and error. Therefore ! take 45 from 1880,
and il leaves 1885 for The year Of our Lord
when these contentious, wars aud COM
motions between truth and error -n,tist
commence their final conflict in which
truth will prevail in the complete over
throw and destruction of error. about the
year 1880. Nuw to find the rise Of pope
~, or the Anti christian power, take
1885 from 1850, and ! 6nd his rise in SIS
Of the Christian era, and TO find the rise
of Mahoinet, or the false prophet. take
the lime of.his continuance 1850 days or
years from 1890, and End his rise iq $40,
il being onle two years sooner than the
MahOmctans reckon their own time. The
Mahnmelaus calculate their own time from
the IIeseira. or Tight of Mlahomet, which
took; place in the year Of our Lord 622;
but think his rise was before his higta.
Mahomet was born in SIZE. When bo
first conceived tho idea of reforming The
religion he was 30 years of age, aud in The
ll,I year of bis reign he puhliely declared
his apposaleship. So that you may see
my calculation Gun no. be !ar from the
truth intended TO be made manifest by
those numbers predicted b lhe prophets.
