trine Of demons has enslaved many
honorable people who would them
selves scorn to make such a plan of the
ages as they attribute to God.
Thank God. the time is not far dis
tant when these seducing spirits will
be completely bound, restrained, and
deceive humanity thus no more. But
the deception has SO long prevailed
that poor humanity is thoroughly un-
der its control. The falsehood leading
up to all this error is Satan's first lie
to our parents In Eden. There, con-
tradicting the words Of God, he said,
aye shall not surely die" Ever since,
for six thousand years, he has worked
along this line. and all the fallen an
gels with him. His message is, "Ye
shall not surely die" You do not sure,
ly die. When men seem to die, they
become more alive than before they
died.
On account Of these errors, that dead
men are alive, Satan and the fallen an
gels, contrary to the teachings Of the
Bible, have instilled into the whole
world, nOnsensical heather supersu-
tons respecting heaven, purgatory and
hell The Catholics pray for those who
go to Purgatory, TO help them out.
Protestants do not so pray, believing
that the sanity few 90 direct to heaven
and all Of the insanity go as directly
to eternal torture

So far as we can learn from those
who have once been spirit mediums,
the trend of Spiritism is toward un-
chastity, impuri;y And this agrees
well with the Scripural declaration
re.ative to the sin through which these
fallen angels first became reprobate.
st. Jude t6) and ST. Peter I'll Peter
II, A.. tell us briefly of the fall of the
angels--that "they left their own hab-
itation and kept not their first estate"
Both Apostles mention the circum-
stance in connection with human las
civiousness, The story Of the fall Of
the angels is given us briefly in Gen
esis vi, IA. After mans fall into sin
God permitted the holy angels to have
communication with humanity. And
because human eyes cannot see spirit
beings, God permitted the angels to
materialize. For instance we note the
case of the angels who visited Abra-
ham on the plains Of Mamre and for
whom he prepared a veal dinner. We
read that. materialiZed, these angels
were like men. and taken by Abraham
to be men, while they ate and talked
with him. 1t was subsequently that
Abraham learned that they were real
