Miracles and Delusions

The Desire to Know the Mysterious,” “Craving for Power,” and “Predicted Manifestations of Power,” are the opening chapters. In them the author points out how this desire to know the supernatural and to possess power has grown during the past few years, and clearly shows that it is predicted in the Scriptures. Chapters four and five explain why divine power has not always attended the believer and prove that the time has now come when it must do so.

Right here, when people expect to see divine power manifested, a counterfeit will appear, the author states; and it is this—“Miraculous Workings That Deceive”—against which he speaks. What this counterfeit is, and how it will manifest itself, is made plain.

“The Fountain of Life” is a wonderfully helpful chapter, clearing away as it does the shadows which have so long hung between us and the “dark beyond.”

“The Science of Christianity” is also an important feature of the book. In it are discussed true Christian Science, Divine Healing, the Perfect Mind, and Cause of Disease.

There are other chapters which speak of Spiritualism, Demon Worship, Hero Worship, and the Personality of Spirits.
