Dear Rosangela,
As I pondered you reply I was reminded of a conversation Jesus had in Luke 10:
28 And he [Jesus] said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.
29 But he, willing to justify himself, said....
The opposite is true, His Child. Those who are waiting for time prophecies which were already fulfilled to be fulfilled again, can't believe Christ will come before these prophecies are supposedly fulfilled, and so will be caught unprepared.
Your reply begins with assumed things that are not based on fact. It is not an either or situation: it is a both groups are in danger of loosing their first love.
In my study of Daniel and Revelation I understood the historisist view. Then I encountered their final fulfillment. Not looking for times, I found them. Then I confirmed them in the Spirit of Prophecy. While seeking to understand the word of God, the Holy Spirit led from light unto light. Thus the crux of the matter are God's people so satisfied with the light that they have that they fail to "follow the light" as it moves to greater light?
I live every day as if it was the last one of my life. Christ will come soon - the signs He predicted show that. There are yet some prophecies from Daniel and Revelation to be fulfilled, but the final movements will be rapid ones - they will not be attached to time.
The calamities by land and sea, the unsettled state of society, the alarms of war, are portentous. They forecast approaching events of the greatest magnitude. The agencies of evil are combining their forces and consolidating. They are strengthening for the last great crisis. Great changes are soon to take place in our world, and the final movements will be rapid ones.—Testimonies for the Church 9:11 (1909).
The condemnation that will fall upon the inhabitants of the earth in this day will be because of their rejection of light. Our condemnation in the judgment will not result from the fact that we have lived in error, but from the fact that we have neglected Heaven-sent opportunities for discovering truth. The means of becoming conversant with the truth are within the reach of all; but, like the indulgent, selfish king, we give more attention to the things that charm the ear, and please the eye, and gratify the palate, than to the things that enrich the mind, the divine treasures of truth. It is through the truth that we may answer the great question, "What must I do to be saved?" {BEcho, September 17, 1894 par. 5}
What is the Present Truth for our day that is being rejected?

j)On 9/11/01 Reagan, Bush I, and Clinton all were alive and all had their dominion taken away
(they were not President any more)
k)On 9/11/01 Bush II was the President in office that is to be consumed by the burning flame
and President Obama is a continuation of President George (6) Walker (6) Bush II (6) [666] as papal Rome (666) was a continuation of pagan Rome
14)The mark of the beast is imminent
15)There is a world to be warned and a Church appointed to do it, but they ARE not sounding the right warning message at the right time.
16)If Laodicea does not wake-up soon, they will wake-up too late
Not one in a hundred among us is doing anything beyond engaging in common, worldly enterprises. We are not half awake to the worth of the souls for whom Christ died.-- Testimonies, vol. 8, p. 148.
We have little enough of Christ's character. We need it all through our ranks, We must reveal that love which dwelt in Jesus. Then we shall keep the commandment [that we love one another], which not one in a hundred of those who claim to believe the truth for this time are keeping. . . . {7MR 389.3}
But this is just rehashing what was published with the facts and Scriptural texts, and Spirit of Prophecy confirmation in the Book Echoes of Doomsday (Earthquake, Tsunami, Meltdown, & the Sunday Law Solution) that was published 4/27/2011
