Excerpt from God's World: A Treatise on Spiritualism Founded on Transcripts of Shorthand Notes Taken Down, Over a Period of Five Years, in the Scance-Room

The classes at which these Teachings were recorded in short hand, as given by the direct voices of the teachers in spirit, were held about one month apart during this five-year period. The transcript of the Teachings was preserved carefully, and this book has been compiled and written in faithful observance of those transcripts, without the introduction of any mortal views. The reason these lessons were not published in the original transcript form was because, at different intervals, additions would be made to the various subjects covered in this work. In the compilation of this book, all of these Teach ings have been grouped arid so far as practicable repetitions have been avoided.

We have presented these subjects in the order in which the spirit-world has advocated that they appear. Unlike most volumes on the subject of Spiritualism, this book is intended not simply to be read. Any one of the subjects could well be utilized as the foundation for an entire volume. Consequently, many good points are presented with considerable brevity. But where it is essential to impress the exact meaning upon the reader, these statements are supplemented by illustrations, and these illustrations - illuminating statements of fact - are distinctive in the Teachings.

Naturally, these subjects are all closely related. And in the different parts of the book, it is often necessary to make specific reference to truths that also are covered in other parts. But this is done where those facts have special reference to the subject being treated.
