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.

glorified, and reflecting the character of

Christ, He enters the temple, and this company

minister there.

In these closing events two distinct views are

given to John. Before the Saviour leaves the

temple, seven angels are seen standing before

the altar. To them are given seven vials

containing the unmingled wrath of God.

The elements of the earth are under the

control of mighty angels, and although Satan,

“the prince of the power of the air,” has had

partial control of these mighty forces, yet the

power of God has held them in check; else

destruction would have come, and man would

have been destroyed. As Christ rises to leave

the temple, these seven commanding angels

stand awaiting the command of Jehovah.
