SATAN'S FIRST LIE
"Ye shall not surely die." Gen. 3:4.

SPIRITUALISM: ANCIENT AND MODERN

The essential claim of Spiritualism is its assertion of power to hold communication with the spirits of the dead; or rather, it claims to have demonstrated that really there is no death.

"There is no death;
What seems so is transition."

The late Prof. Alfred Russel Wallace, the English scientist, said of Spiritualism:—

"It demonstrates, as completely as the fact can be demonstrated, that the so-called dead are still alive."—"On Miracles and Modern Spiritualism" (London, 1875), p. 212.

First Declaration of the Doctrine

In the very first book of the Bible is a similar claim: "Ye shall not surely die." Gen. 3:4.
