While I try to look at all viable options for the fulfillment of this prophecy, many make sense. One being that his showing of signs and his claiming
godship could cause people to worship him as opposed to God, thus causing people to quit accepting the sacrifice of Jesus and not giving offerings and
praise to the Lord. I also see yours as a viable option. Mine is not to guess at the way the Lord may have shown this particular thing to Daniel as I
believe both would be accurate fulfillment. If he stops the physical sacrifice, the other will still happen because it states his prophet will cause
all to worship him or die. However the prophecy about people being forced to choose him or God could accurately describe the same events as Daniel was
describing here, as Daniel did not understand the way that Jesus would fulfill the messianic prophecies there fore God may have showed it to him in a
way he could understand. Much the way He showed both John and Daniel beasts refferencing the final kingdoms. Only time will tell which proves to be
the accurate interpretation. Remember by refusing to see the possibility of other interpretations, we could easily deceive ourselves into not seeing
the fulfillment when it comes. This happened to the jews when Jesus came before them, and I believe it will happen to many when this man reveals
himself.
