Excerpt from Humanity Immortal: Or, Man Tried, Fallen, and Redeemed Every human life has thus a perpetual ongoing ex perience, and as each is a propagation from an origi nal stock by natural generation, so the primitive life sends down its connections through all, and makes for humanity a universal history. In that which is peculiar to man must human experience and history differ from other Spiritual communities in other spheres; but since the one Father of spirits is Crea tor and Lord of all spirits, so in this one source of all authority and responsibility must all rational be ings, in all worlds, be necessarily implicated in com mon interests, and stand each to each ip reciprocity of rights and obligations. The work now before us is to trace, in general outline, the specific History of Humanity from its beginning to its consummation in the eternal state, with the communings and collisions that may occur with other orders of spiritual intelli gences; taking as our guide the offered light from speculative reason, and from divine revelation, and, so far as the facts of experience may be gathered, from the records of past ages. The light shining from all these sources must give in all readings the same one meaning, since all are reflections from the one pure source of Absolute Truth and Wisdom.
