[Transcriber's note: The original print edition contain many obvious
typos that have been corrected in this electronic edition. I have taken
care to mark where changes were made within the text, and notes about
the changes can be found at the end of this text. I have left hyphen
irregularities as they were printed (so that both "anti-slavery" and
"antislavery" will be found within the text). For additional perspective
on errata within the text, see the author's remarks following the final
treatise.]

Preliminary Remarks

Attentive readers will find superabundance of signs or credentials
testifying the mission of every one who comprehends this book and
acts with us for the accomplishment of the great promise, if they peruse
the whole book as often as necessary for a full understanding of each
event mentioned herein in connexion with the whole. From this
connection of events it is evident, that in collisions in to which we have
come with our opposers during the performance of the duties of our
mission, we were under the direction of those invisible guardians who
are labouring to introduce the promised new era of Truth and
Righteousness, while our opposers were endeavouring to support the
existing systems of delusion and iniquity, and that spirits of all spheres,
heavenly angels as well as infernal demons, give testimony to our
mission, spirits of each sphere in such a manner as is most suitable to
their sphere. By the developments made in this book the secret enemies
of true Republicanism are made manifest, and it is made clear, how
every party and sect, notwithstanding their profession of republicanism,
are supporting Popery, or, what is the same Monarchy, if they disregard
our disclosures concerning the Roman Catholic and the Protestant
churches in reference to Christ's Peaceable Reign which will be the
universal republic of truth and righteousness[C], and if they neglect to
co-operate with us for its introduction.
When I say "us," I understand the whole body of messengers whom I
represent. I became Representative of this Body by having performed
and explained what has been shown to me by the Spirit of Truth for the
introduction of the promised New Era. No imaginations, but facts,
events, are testifying our Heavenly Mission for the true Freedom,
Harmony and Peace of Nations, as well as the infernal Mission of those
who either openly or secretly, are opposed to our mission. In this their
condition they are supporting the Papal Imperial Royal or Monarchial

powers. This will be evident to those who comprehend this book. Then
they will know that those are either wittingly deceivers, or are deceived
and repeat the lies and slanders of others, who say that I make too great
claims and am anxious to be a great man. I confess to be nothing else
but a true republican, a man for free discussion, testifying what I know,
and offering it to be duly examined and used for the welfare of nations.
I had to forsake all things of this world and to devote all my time to
deep investigations, till at length my studies had arrived to maturity,
that I could be used by Heavenly Powers as an instrument or medium
to disclose what is required for Christ's peaceable Reign on Earth. But
those who should have been our first labourers in the great cause of
