49985 The Conditionalist Faith of Our Fathers, vol. 2, p. 1115.4 (LeRoy Edwin Froom)

Such a “prophecy,” he adds, “thrills my being’s depths.” But that is a prediction made without warrant of Holy Writ. Spiritualism is, however, “destined” to play a crucial part in the approaching windup of human affairs, as noted elsewhere.

It is into this category that Peebles not only puts “Jesus,” but likewise “Buddha, the light of Asia,” who, he says, “doubtless preached for centuries to Asiatic spirits in prison.” That relationship is characteristic of Spiritualism.29) Ibid. 30.
