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.


               basest  of  things.  The  woman  who  would  so


               rule, would have gone beyond all bounds of

               propriety, and the nation so ruled would be


               pitied  for  its  absolute  loss  of  self-respect.  If


               this is true in the actual relationships of life,


               how  must  it  have  appeared  in  the  eyes  of


               heaven,  when  the  very  principles  in


               accordance  with  which  nature  was  created,


               were  so  revolutionized  as  to  make  this


               condition of things possible? But the devil was

               foiled.              This             was             his           masterpiece.


               Amalgamation of species, a thing contrary to


               divine  law,  and  self-destruction  in  the  end,


               was  practical  in  Rome.  The  woman  became


               the  mother  of  harlots.  The  ten  horns,  or


               kingdoms, have one mind with the beast, and


               give their strength unto the beast.
