THE OCCULT POWERS OF MODERN SPIRITUALISM DESIGNED AS A POPULAR TREATISE
Book Details + Condition: Alfred Rundquist (self-published, Chicago). First Edition, 1925. Hardcover. 99 pages with advertisements. The author provides support that occult powers originated through God bestowing supernatural powers on the faithful, and not by man's own self-creation. Specific analysis is placed on the various means to communicate with the dead, such as through seances, channeling, automatic writing and mental telepathy. He then debunks the "alleged" powers of Modern Spiritualism and 19th century Christian cults as having such occult supernatural powers. Contents include:
- The Origin of Modern Spiritualism
- The Occult Powers of Spiritualism Traced
