W. By experience and investigation. Minds in this sphere will be
instructed by our mission to the rudimental world. They will unite with
us in convincing minds in the body of the reality of this sphere. They
will co-operate with us in relieving mind from all uncertainty and
doubt of the immortality of the soul. They will rob death of its sting,
and the grave of its victory. They will tell many facts which earth’s
inhabitants do not know. They will do good, and not evil; and, as they
do good, so evil will be overcome. They will warn all of the condition
of themselves; for whatever may be the character of communications
imparted to minds in the body, they must correspond with the condition
of the communicator. If dissimilar sentiments shall be taught, it will
prove to the minds receiving them, that dissimilar minds occupy heaven
as well as earth. The tree will be known by its fruit. The whole sphere
of wisdom will be thus developed. Thou wilt see, that, if thy circle
only were to communicate, a great error and wrong would be impressed
upon the receiver. He would judge thy teaching as the universal
sentiment of this sphere, and harbor the idea that the indolent of
earth, and the cruel among mankind, were even as thou art; and, thou
seest the wrong which such partial unfoldings of this sphere, would
induce, and the negligence it would occasion. To develop the realities
of this sphere, it is necessary that each circle should develop itself.
I would say, that each circle, possessing the capacity to communicate,
should unfold its own wisdom. Thus, when the elevated circles describe
the lower, the communications, emanating therefrom, will establish the
description.
The various circles and degrees of wisdom in this sphere, will find
corresponding affinities in the body. Thou wilt see that all circles
will advance circles to their own position of wisdom. Minds will
correct minds, the higher controlling the lower, until the lower shall
become as the higher. Thou wilt not find all minds equal to thy own,
but thou wilt instruct them until they shall agree with thee in all
things. Minds in the body will be elevated to the seventh circle in
wisdom, but progress and labor must do the work.
M. Minds in the body will deny the revealments you will make, because
they are conflicting.
