The purpose of life is not to enrich us materially at the expense of others. If we do, in reality we are the poorest of all - poor in spirit and character. Opportunities for service come to each one of us, irrespective of our lot or position in life. We can always do good, if we choose, no matter who or what we are. We can be kind to others no matter whether we are princes or paupers.
Spiritualism is the declared enemy of materialism.
It proves that man survives death by a natural law of the universe. It proves mankind with a religion founded not on faith, or fear, but on knowledge. God is not a Christian, Jew, Roman Catholic, Protestant, Methodist, or a Spiritualist. Whether you are orthodox or agnostic, rich or poor, educated or illiterate, a cabinet minister or a crossing sweeper, dictator or peasant, you cannot alter the law of cause and effect as it operates in your life. That is the great message of Spiritualism.
