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.



               Mohammedanism substituted the sixth day of


               the week for the Sabbath, and accepted a false

               as beneath a covering, of sackcloth. Men think


               that  with  the  advanced  knowledge  of  the
