The Story of the Seer of Patmos

En savoir plus sur le livre

In "The Story of the Seer of Patmos," Stephen Haskell immerses readers in the life of John the Beloved, highlighting his profound connection to God and the visions of future events he received. More than just a narrative, the book serves as a detailed guide to Revelation, unpacking its symbols and their relevance today in an accessible style. Haskell transforms the often dry study of prophecy into an engaging exploration, appealing to both young and old. He covers key topics such as the seven churches, seven seals, and the ominous figures of the apocalypse, while also examining significant historical signs from the late 1700s and early 1800s, including a meteor shower, the Lisbon earthquake, and the day the sky darkened at noon. These events, predicted in eight biblical texts, are presented with thirteen identifying characteristics that mark them as unmistakable signs of the end times. Originally published with a heartfelt prayer that it would guide readers to the Lamb of God, Haskell hopes to provide treasure for Bible students, grounds for faith for skeptics, and insight for the indifferent. "Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy..." (Revelation 1:3).
