DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith

                                 ~The Response of History to the Revelation~

                                                Chapter 7 – The Sealing
                   men is given the commission of instructing


               their fellow men in Bible truth; but as there is


               order  in  the  execution  of  all  the  divine

               next event after the sealing of these servants

               with  palms  of  victory  in  their  hands.  The


               sealing  is  therefore  the  last  work  to  be


               accomplished  for  them  prior  to  their


               redemption.



               In Revelation 14 we find the same work again


               brought to view under the symbol of an angel
