One of the achievements of the Catholic Counter Reformation was to absolve the RC from past blame and the shifted the little horn in Daniel 7 into the future. In 1590 Francisco Ribeira said that the ‘he’ in Daniel 9:27 will be the Antichrist. Today Futurism has taken deep roots in the world as a result of the strategic planting of error to delete historicism. Adventism teaches historicism. We agree with the Protestant reformers that the little horn was the Antichrist. We say that activities of the little horn to persecute the saints of the Most High and speak blasphemously are directly linked with the Papacy.
