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

announcement is made that He is coming.

sealing message come forth to meet their
Redeemer.
On leaving the temple, before the outpouring
of the plagues, the Son of man exchanges His
priestly garments for those of a king. The royal
diadem is placed upon His brow,-the brow
once pierced by a crown of thorns. Heaven’s
hosts are marshaled; the inhabitants of other
worlds draw near. From the temple, flies an
angel crying to Him who is crowned King,
“Thrust in Thy sickle, and reap: for the time is
come for Thee to reap; for the harvest of the
earth is ripe.”
