The popular ministry cannot successfully resist Spiritualism. They have nothing to shield their flocks from its baleful influence. Much of the sad result of Spiritualism will rest upon ministers of this age; for they have trampled under their feet the truth, and in its stead have preferred fables.

Den populære forkyndelse kan få held med at modstå spiritualismen. De har intet at beskytte deres hjort med fra dens ødelæggende indflydelse. Mange af spiritualismens sørgelige resultater, vil påhvile denne tidsalders prædikanter; for de har trådt sandheden under deres fødder, og har foretrukket fabler i dens sted.
