Testimonies to Ministers and Gospel Workers
When the books of Daniel and Revelation are better understood,
believers will have an entirely different religious experience. They

contains so much that is large with immortality and full of glory

do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise
shall understand. And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall
be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up,
there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days. Blessed is
he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five
and thirty days. But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt
rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days.”
It was the Lion of the tribe of Judah who unsealed the book and
gave to John the revelation of what should be in these last days.
Daniel stood in his lot to bear his testimony which was sealed
until the time of the end, when the first angel’s message should be
