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.

peopling the earth with a race that could

develop a spiritual nature like unto His own,

was a revelation of His love.

The interest of heaven was centered, upon

humanity, and angels were commissioned to

watch over them. This ministration of angels

has linked heaven and earth by a tie which no

power can sever. The enemy has offset each

blessing of the Father by a hellish scheme;

hence while some accept the workings of the

Spirit of God, there are others who yield to the

influence of the contrary spirit; and the earth

has become a great battlefield. Every offering,

from the first one at the gate of the Garden of

Eden to the time of Christ, shadowed forth the

one great sacrifice of the Saviour.
