Bart., Colonel E.
B. Wilbraham, of the English army," etc.

The late Alexander III, of Russia, and the queen of Spain are also
reckoned among the number. Thus, so far as the agency of the spirits is
concerned, there is nothing in the way of the speedy fulfilment of Rev.
16:14.

CONCLUSION.

The reader now has before him, in brief, the main outlines of this
momentous subject.

1. Spiritualism, so far as its phenomena are concerned, is not humbug and
trickery, but a real manifestation of power and intelligence.

2. But the marvels and wonders are not performed by the spirits of the
dead.

3. Evil spirits step in and counterfeit what are supposed to be the
spirits of the dead, in which men have been taught to believe, simulating
points of identity to any minute particular that may be required.

4. Besides starting on this false assumption, all their teaching shows
that they are agents of evil, not of good, and their work is to degrade,
not elevate.

5. The world by long resistance of the truth, has prepared the way for
this deception, which the spirit that worketh in the children of
disobedience is not slow to improve.

6. Even the churches of Christ, by rejection of the truth, are preparing
themselves for the same snare.

7. The Scriptures have plainly pointed out this great outbreak of the
working of Satan, and invariably connected it with the last days and the
second coming of Christ.

8. Spiritualism is thus a subject of prophecy, and an infallible sign and
precursor of the soon-coming end.

9. The great day of the Lord is near and hasteth greatly; and all things
now call upon all men to prepare for its eternal decisions.

Is this the lesson? Who will heed it and thus escape the delusions and
perils of these last days, and be finally saved in the kingdom of heaven?
