mini|The original 1843 Chart The production of the 1850 chart was the fulfillment of the prophecy given in Habakkuk 2:2 “And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.” This was the second and last chart Ellen White was instructed should be produced. It corrected the “…mistake in some of the figures…” that were present on the 1843 chart. That correction was the end of the great time prophecies of the Bible.

It was determined that the prophetic times did not end with the beginning of the year 1844, but had to extend into that year as far in as they began. In other words, since it was determined that the 2300 day/year prophecy began in the Autumn of 457 BC, it must extend into the Autumn of 1844. October 22nd to be exact.

This is the last chart that Ellen White was told should be created. It is the second chart of the Millerites that was directed by the Hand of God. After this point, we were never told again that inspiration directed the creation of a new chart.

Ellen G. White Quotes regarding this Chart

“I saw the chart-making business was all wrong. It originated with Brother Rhodes and was followed out by Brother Case. Means have been spent in making charts and forming uncouth, disgusting images to represent angels and the glorious Jesus. Such things, I saw, were displeasing to God. I saw that God was in the publishment of the chart by Brother Nichols [Otis Nichols].19 I saw that there was a prophecy of this chart in the Bible,20 and if this chart is designed for God’s people, if it [is] sufficient for one it is for another, and if one needed a new chart painted on a larger scale, all needed it just as much.” {1EGWLM 358.4}

God showed me the necessity of getting out a chart. I saw it was needed and that the truth made plain upon tables would affect much and would cause souls to come to the knowledge of the truth.—Letter 26, 1850, p. 1. (To Brother and Sister Loveland, November 1, 1850.) {5MR 202.4} On our return to Brother Nichol’s, the Lord gave me a vision and showed me that the truth must be made plain upon tables, and it would cause many to decide for the truth by the third angel’s message with the two former being made plain upon tables. I also saw it was as necessary for the paper to be published as for the messengers to go, for the messengers need a paper to carry with them containing present truth to put in the hands of those who hear and then the truth would not fade from the mind, and that the paper would go where the messengers could not go. Other things I saw, which will appear in the paper.... {5MR 203.1}
