I Strongly DisagreeThe abomination of desolation spoken by Daniel began when Christ came and His people rejected Him, and their house was left unto them desolate. (Mt 23:38) Jerusalem and the Temple was the holy place unto God. And the destruction in AD 70 was written to be an example for Christ's Church as the Gospel is proclaimed unto all the earth. AOD according to Daniel came to the nation when the promised Messiah was cut off. The cross, the ultimate betrayal by Daniel's people, the leaders of the Jews ceased to be the holy people unto God.
Daniel 9:26-27 (KJV) And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
This warning of AOD is written for His disciples, the Church on earth as the Gospel is proclaimed unto all the earth. The same thing that happened to the nation of Israel can happen to the Church. The Church too can reject Christ. This is clear from all the warnings in Scripture. When the Church rejects Christ it too has become an abomination unto God and the result is the Church becomes a desolation without light and life, a church in name only, just as Jerusalem is today. Just as the holy people, city and temple had the light of God taken from them, so too Christ warns His Church on earth that we too can fall when we reject our first love which is rejection of Christ. Unlike the Jews of old who refused to repent, the Church on earth is called again and again to repent and do what we are called for, build the Kingdom that is through the love of Christ.
Revelation 2:4-5 (KJV) Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
Daniel's AOD is future, and the bad guy causing the Abomination and Desolation will be present on earth to the "Consummation" Ultimate End
"Future" Events Unfulfilled
This "Future" figure will be present on earth making (Abomination & Desolation) to the (Consummation) or (The Ultimate End) "Future" Event(s) Unfulfilled
(The Future Consummation)
2 Peter 3:10KJV
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

Daniel's AOD (Even Until The Consummation) "Future"!
Daniel 9:27KJV
27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
