	William Miller and the Mystery of the Sanctuary
		Miller recognized that the period of 2,300 years extended far beyond the Jewish Dispensation; and therefore, could not refer to the "sanctuary" of that dispensation.
		Miller and his followers were stunned and bewildered by the failure of the prophesy.
		Miller decided that the mistake had been made in his understanding of the term "sanctuary." Adhering to pre-millennial thought, Miller believed that the term "sanctuary" referred to the earth and that the cleansing of the sanctuary referred to the apocalyptic destruction that was to precede the Second Coming of Jesus.

		Miller begins to read the Bible, and he undertakes a new sense of understanding of how to interpret prophecy and the Book of Revelation itself.
		The most important thing that William Miller brings to the discussions of the Book of Revelation is his new sense of how the events are going to unfold.

	William Miller: A Great Reformer? (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Miller served in the War of 1812 as a captain, and afterward renewed his Baptist faith.
		Miller began studying the Bible intensely, and in 1818 he came to the conclusion Christ was going to return in 1843 based upon his understanding of Daniel 8:14.
		While Miller may have been sincere in his efforts, his interpretations of the Bible were fanatical and incorrect, and the movement he inspired is now regarded as little more than an unfortunate blemish on Christian history.

	Blue Helmets to Jerusalem - Preface
		As if catching the prophetic bug from Miller, or perhaps to compete with his contemporary whose predictions captured newspaper headlines, Joseph Smith, the founder, leader and official "Prophet" of the Mormon Church, set his own timetable that would have had Christ returning around the year 1890.
		Some Adventists recalculated Miller's dates, found what they believed to be a thirty-year error, and began proclaiming after the American Civil War that Christ would return in the autumn of 1874.
		The failure of William Miller's predictions that Christ would return in 1844 was labeled by historians as "the Disappointment of 1844." Some victims of failed prophecies lost faith entirely, while others were forced to undergo a painful re-examination of what they believed and why.
