Spiritualist gloss on the life of the apostle Paul and the Second Advent: "...we have to study...whether our relations to Christ are such that we too can rationally hope for a personal meeting with him that shall change our bodies from mortality to immortality...I can hardly hope to show you how I have solved this question. There is a natural mind and there is a spiritual mind; and the spiritual mind sees farther and more clearly than the natural mind..." DARE 1486.
