THE STORY OF THE SEER OF PATMOS

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

CHAPTER XVI. – PREPARATION FOR THE

PLAGUES

Heaven may seem like a far away world, but

inspiration has given vivid descriptions of the

abode of Jehovah. Human language but faintly

conveys the splendor of spiritual purity, and

the mortal mind, because of its narrowness,

fails to grasp even the glimpses that are given;

nevertheless, some idea may be gained of the

capital of the universe, where dwells the King

of kings. Outside the city of the New

Jerusalem, the place which Christ promised to

prepare for His people, and which is called the

bride, the Lamb’s wife, is Mount Zion, on

which stands the living temple, the great

council chamber of the most High.
