Alfred H. Terry offers a concise statement of the purposes and teachings of Modern Spiritualism. Written for existing adherents and readers beginning to investigate the subject, the book connects spirit communication with a wider account of religious life and personal development.
The chapters discuss truth, universal religion, the Bible, mediumship and spiritual gifts. Further sections turn to effort, rebirth, free will, liberty and fear. Terry presents these topics as related aspects of a spiritual outlook, moving between explanations of the movement and reflections on the conduct of everyday life.
A section of testimony from prominent men and women accompanies the author’s own exposition, and a conclusion draws the argument together. First issued in Washington in 1922, this complete edition preserves its preface, chapter sequence and historical statements of belief. It provides a compact view of how a Spiritualist pastor presented the movement to a general audience.
