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.


               government of heaven, and the utter failure of


               the  attempt  put  the  prince  of  this  world  to

               open shame before the rulers of other worlds,


               when Christ came into His own territory, and


               built up a spiritual kingdom within the hearts


               of  the  subjects  of  Rome  itself.  When  at  the


               crucifixion of Christ, Satan was cast from the


               council  of  the  representatives  of  worlds,


               knowing  that  his  time  was  short,  he


               revolutionized his former methods, and made

               governments  subject  to  the  religious


               organization.  This  revolution  was  a  slow


               process. It was begun soon after the death of


               Christ.  The  master  hand,  which  had  swayed


               nations  since  creation,  worked  in  two


               directions, hoping that when his forces met he


               would have accomplished what he had failed

               to accomplish heretofore.
