the works of Allan Kardec, which constitute the Spiritist Codification, should be always encouraged while underscoring the basis on which the Doctrine is established.All work and activities have as their highest objective the placing with simplicity and clarity of the Spiritist Doctrines consoling and guiding message within the reach and at the service of everyone through study, prayer, and other joint activities.Work of Federations as well as activities of unification of the Spiritist Movement must always preserve the participants inherent right to think, create, and act, as professed and praised by the Spiritist Doctrine, with the understanding, however, that each and every activity must be in accord with the works of the Codification by Allan Kardec.The Mission of Spiritists Go forth then and take the Divine Word: to the great who will be despising; to the learned who will demand proof; to the humble and simple ones who will accept; because it is principally among the martyrs to work, this terrestrial probation, that you will encounter fervour and faith. Fortify your phalanx with decision and courage! Hands to work! The plough is ready! The land awaits; plough! Go forth and thank God for the glorious task which He has entrusted to you; but pay attention! Amongst those called to Spiritism many will go astray; so then, mark well your pathway and follow the truth. Erastus The Gospel According to Spiritism Chapt. XX Item 4OBSERVATIONS1.
