THE STORY OF THE SEER OF PATMOS

                                             Stephen N. Haskell


                 “Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at
                                              hand” Revelation 22:10.



               people of God; for they have heard the voice of


               God,  proclaiming  the  hour  of  the  Saviour’s



               coming. “Ye shall have a song, as in the night


               when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of


               heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come


               into the mountain of the Lord, to the mighty


               One  of  Israel.  And  the  Lord  shall  cause  His


               glorious voice to be heard, and shall show the


               lighting down of His arm, with the indignation


               of His anger, and with the flame of a devouring


               fire,  with  scattering,  and  tempest,  and


               hailstones.” And yet with it all, when “there fell


               upon men great hail out of heaven, every stone


               about  the  weight  of  a  talent,”  men  still


               “blasphemed God because of the plague of the


               hail.”
