Some of the members of the spiritualists attend seances, promote methods of healing and investigate psychic phenomena. Some people become involved in spiritualism because they seek excitement. Most people join into spiritualism due to losing a loved one and they are going through a period of grief. They feel lost and vacant and the idea of conversing with the dead is appealing. Also, the idea of receiving direction from one in the spirit would be very assuring.
Spiritualists teach from the Bible.
They claim to have the nine miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit, which they claim to use during seances. They mention Jesus in their prayers, but they do not believe He is the Divine Son of God. However, they do not believe in a Death, Hell, or a Judgement. The spiritualists have worship services. They sing and pray.
