Question:   What is Spiritualism?

Answer:

 

1.      Spiritualism is a religion teaching the continuity of Life as it endeavors to comply with the Mental, Physical, and Spiritual Laws of Nature, which are the Laws of God.

2.      Spiritualism is also a science. Science investigates, studies, and analyzes, then collects the facts for classification, which Spiritualism does with the manifestations that are brought from the Spirit side of Life.

3.      Spiritualism is also a philosophy. It studies the laws of Nature of the Physical Plane as well as the Spiritual Plane. The conclusions are then based upon the observed facts of the present day. The conclusions taken from the past are accepted when they are supported by reason and results of the facts, as they are in the present.

Spiritualism teaches, and proves, there is no death, thereby eliminating the fear of death. It proves there is no death, only to that of the physical body. This is the only cessation. As the continuity of Life is proven, we know that the life of the Spirit continues its development and progression. So, that part of you which is Spirit, simply changes it condition (rate of vibration), and by the “free will” of your Spirit. Life does continue on, in as normal and as fruitful a manner as when in the physical Life.

Spiritualism teaches that man is Spirit, not that man has a Spirit. The Spirit of man is encased in a physical body: the body being the vehicle through which the Spirit operates. That, as all thoughts, ideas, plans, inspiration for writers, musicians, doctors, attorneys, artists, builders, or any other facet of Life, is all brought by the Immortal Spirit, or the Spirit World. It is received first by that “part of you” which is “Spirit.” Spirit receives from Spirit, and that line is fed into the brain, the mind, which then activates the physical.  All things are brought from Spirit.

Question:  What is Mediumship and how does it work?

Answer:

  1. A medium is one who is sensitive to the vibrations of those in the Spirit World, and whose sensitivity is used to make contact with those on the Earth Plane.
  2. Mediumship is the phase of, or the manner in which the spirit's message is brought to the Medium. Mediumistic abilities; the inclinations of being a mystic or a Medium. Having the abilities of being attuned to the high vibrations of the Spirit.
