This result is that The ''Rappings" are no,
mere juggle. or intentional hnposture; that
they have not their origin in any hitherto
latent action Of Electricity, Magnetism, or
any other natural or physical force; that
they are not caused By the unconscious in.
voluntary mental action Of person "in The
body;" that il is not true that dsembodied
spirits cannot communicate with persons sill
in The flesh; that The "Spiritual Rappings"
ate really caused by The spirits Of the de-.
parted, but not by The spirits of the blest ;
that they are demoniac-lhat is, the work OF
devils; and that this is demonstrated by their
general denial of The Inspiration Of the Bible
and of the great Fundamentals Of Evangelical
Christianity, and by their disnclination 10
