What is the true religion of Christ?

The host of reformers that laboured so spiritually on earth have concentrated their magnetic forces in rapport with Christ, and now, with this new dispensation of power, the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man interblends with every soul that it may receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

He stands, as it were, in the centre of this great spiritual revolution. 

Never in the remotest antiquity do we trace such a revolution, such a spiritual change as is taking place at the present time.

Christ's mediumistic power consisted of twelve definite forms. His prophetic words are now being fulfilled—the Son of man will come again in the clouds and with more power. This is the fulfilment of those words—Verily he is in the midst of us all.

The concentrated power, consisting in magnetism conveys his influence wherever two or three are gathered together. This magnetic power is the baptism, which he gave to his disciples, called the Holy Spirit. 

Legions of angels or spirits, one and the same, are constantly going back and forth from this earth to work out the fulfilment of his prophetic words. 

Not only in Europe and America, but in the remotest parts of the earth where you would little think there was any spiritual culture, but where in fact there is greater impression made upon cultivated individuals than here in the midst of Christian civilisation.

Christ the reformer, since his entrance into spirit life, nearing the nineteenth century, has worked more faithfully, and with more efficiency by far than the preceding reformers, and why?

Simply this—the old philosophers and reformers, having acquired superior knowledge and strength united with the Pythagorean Band, of which Jesus the Nazarene is the centre, He being the latter-day martyr, having been informed after his maturity of his sufferings and death was fully resigned, for the sake of the interest and benefit it would eventually be to the human race in salvation, as the Christians term it, of the soul or spirit, but which in reality is not correctly understood.

Salvation, not consisting in the simple faith in Christ without works, but in faith with works.

Faith in realising that through his magnetic influence each mortal can be assisted in working out good deeds and noble designs.

He was a martyr. He resigned himself to every fate, suffered pain and deprivation, for the sake of truth. Prayed to get in more thorough rapport with his guides and controlling influences, fasted forty days in the wilderness to set an example by purifying his body for spiritual communion—He gained strength in spirit by abstaining from material pleasures, the outgrowth of which has become firmer and stronger up to the present day. He died for the truth.

His teachings were not understood save by the few, and those few could not convey them in an indelible form to the inhabitants of earth, consequently, the misconceived ideas, which have been drawn from the pagan schools. Throwing out portions here and there, they have as a body an indefinite conception of the great definable truth, which Christ the reformer demonstrated. However, it has not lain dormant, it has grown in spirit.

The great philosophers, the remotest reformers, having concentrated their forces are drawn towards the centre where Christ the reformer stands.

They see clearly that they cannot make the right truthful impression upon the various sects and races. They interpose their power and now harmonise with the latest reformer.

Christ the reformer is the Tree of Life. Look at the millions who are imploring him daily! See the millions of mortals invoking Allah, Omah, Jehovah, and a host of other gods!

They, too, were reformers in their day. They strove to lead minds on a higher pinnacle, but were unsuccessful. 

Buddha accomplished greater works, but owing to the ignorance and arrogance of other sects and nations, his power was interfered with and greatly impaired.

However, the more liberal spiritual philosophy still exists in the Brahmin faith. 

Those persons who are individualised powers, standing where Christ stood, working to establish the same purposes in effect have added additional branches to the trunk. 

They have concentrated their power and united themselves in harmony with Christ the Reformer. Through the development of their progressive natures, they now work upon the same plane, for the same accomplishment in power and individuality. Bands of spiritual beings are sent out from this great head or central circle, which is located in the seventh sphere, where their council is daily held.

Thoughts and expressions, influences of love and truth, are thrown off, sent hither and thither through space to the various inhabitants of earth. The more impressive mortals are sensitive to this influence.

They through respiration inhale it—they are then called mediums or instruments through whom this power is conveyed to others and attract more attention from the spiritual Universe. The great Reformer, attended by the antenatal reflections and the reformers of remoter days, sends messenger after messenger from sphere to sphere until the influences reach your earth.

This great reformatory principle will develop the true spiritual nature of man and impart the identical conditions necessary for his development, drawing him nearer toward the Infinite Creator whom they resemble in spirit.

It is through this power, when rightly applied, that the inner principle of man will unfold the sixth sense, which is dormant in the greater number of the human race.

The unfoldment or development of the sixth sense, which is purely spiritual and interblends with the higher attributes of nature, gives strength and individuality to the conceptions of the spirit and causes it to grow more potent in purity.

Consequently, through this unfoldment, the true philosophy of spiritual life will be comprehended.
