Supernaturalism runs like a scarlet thread through the whole Christians' Bible from Genesis to Revelation. Many a Christian today passes hastily over the miracle stories in the Scriptures and dwells with greater satisfaction on the less spectacular portrayal of men's moral ideals and spiritual struggles abundantly recorded in his sacred book. Why did the advocates of the new religion concern themselves so extensively with the imagery of supernaturalism? To answer this question is the purpose of the present volume. Contents: age of supernaturalism; visibility of spirits; media of revelation; heroic redeemers; suppliant humanity; protection for society; help for the individual; destiny of the soul; fate of the mind.
