What would you advise as the best method for accomplishing individual reform in connection with Spiritualism?
That is a difficult subject to take up at present.
It would take a whole sitting, and would form a lecture in itself.
But I would say briefly—
With the continual inflow of persons of all characters and creeds—of some who neither fear God, nor regard men—of others who, though believers in the future world, are loose in their habits.
Under such circumstances, I would say—
Set before such the bright example of Jesus, but at the same time, be yourselves living models of his goodness and truth.
Speak as he spoke—do as he did, and looking on you, as you stand before them, they will be drawn to look on him whom you imitate and become in due time his disciples, also.
Then will they see, as they never saw before, his wondrous works—wonders never seen on earth, but through him.
He was indeed a spiritualist.
Where will they get a medium to raise the dead?
But if they quit their evil ways—forswear all deceit—love the truth and practise holiness—become humble as little children and ask to be guided in what they say and do—then will they see wonders done in their midst—not in darkness, but before all men in the light of day.
