About This Book

A systematic exposition of theological principles presented as a restoration of ancient spiritual science, tracing its historical loss and urging its modern revival. The author explains keys to the Godhead, the origin and destiny of the universe, and tiers of the afterlife with distinct resurrections and spiritual kingdoms. Chapters treat angels, spirits, dreams, miracles, and the practical initiation of believers into theology, and also examine social and governmental implications, marriage and procreation, and speculative topics such as human progress, extraordinary velocities of motion, and possible interplanetary communication.
