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.



               blessing,  upon  those  who  die  in  the  Lord


               during  the  sealing  work,  and  the  Spirit



               answers,  “Yea,  blessed  are  they.”  “Thou,


               blessest,  O  Lord,  and  it  shall  be  blessed

               labors;  and  their  works  do  follow  them.”

               the          everlasting                  Gospel             with            all       the


               consequences that would follow, and having


               fought a good fight, Christ Himself completes
