THE STORY OF THE SEER OF PATMOS

controlled affairs; and preceding the setting
up of the papacy, the eye of the Infinite One
saw those who would give the last message to
the world and see the triumph of truth. Thus
when the “mystery of iniquity” thought to
reign supreme, it found that the seed of truth,
which would inevitably cause its overthrow,
had already been planted by God, in the
Western Empire. Events which took place in
the eastern third of the world, and which
finally centered about Constantinople, the
capital of the Eastern Empire, show, with
equal clearness, the wonderful foresight and
wisdom of the Saviour. Satan may be rich in
resources, but the God of heaven knows a
thousand ways to thwart his every scheme.
